Modality-agnostic decoders leverage modality-invariant representations in human subjects' brain activity to predict stimuli irrespective of their modality (image, text, mental imagery).

How does the brain perceive time? A new fMRI study identifies a three-stage neural relay from the visual cortex to the frontal regions that constructs our subjective experience of duration and timing.

The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called neurons, process stimuli from the outside world. They only react when objects ...

A team of researchers recently found that three parts of the brain are especially relevant to the experience of consciousness. After scanning the brains of subjects, the researchers identified reduced ...

The visual cortex exhibits remarkable experience-dependent plasticity, which can be profoundly disrupted by abnormal visual input. Form-deprivation myopia (FDM) is a well-established model for ...

A post on Google Design this week takes a look at the design and illustration of the Gemini app, with gradients playing a big role. Google considers AI assistants to be an “uncharted design territory” ...

(Bloomberg/Samantha Kelly) — Top members of the team behind Apple Inc.’s Face ID are launching a startup to develop technology to help robots see better and move more safely in the world around them.

When we watch someone move, get injured, or express emotion, our brain doesn’t just see it—it partially feels it. Researchers found eight body-like maps in the visual cortex that organize what we see ...

Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds, behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published Nov. 25 in Neuron, finds in mice that via specific circuits, ...

Scientists have spent decades trying to understand whether the layered sheet of tissue that covers your brain follows one common pattern for handling information. Each region of the cortex contains ...
