A study in mice funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) shows for the first time that high-contrast visual stimulation can help damaged retinal neurons regrow optic nerve fibers, otherwise ...

Recent advances in the fields of physical activity and education for children with visual impairments have underscored the importance of tailored interventions that promote not only physical ...

Neuroscientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have figured out a way of recreating visual activity taking place in the brain and reconstructing it using YouTube clips. The team used ...

BOSTON--Scientists have long known that brains need neural activity to mature and that sensory input is most important during a specific window of time called the "critical period" when the brain is ...

UC Berkeley scientists have developed a system to capture visual activity in human brains and reconstruct it as digital video clips. Eventually, this process will allow you to record and reconstruct ...

Activity in the visual cortex and other sensory areas is dominated by signals about body movements, down to little tics and twitches. Scientists are now rethinking how they study and conceive of ...

The brain modulates visual signals according to internal states, as a new study by LMU neuroscientist Laura Busse reveals. What we see is not simply just a neural representation of the pattern of ...
