It has long been known that the brain preferentially processes information that we focus our attention on—a classic example ...

A new fMRI study found that adults with autism and neurotypical individuals process images of body parts similarly in the brain’s LOTC. The research suggests that challenges in reading body language ...

Without us even noticing it, our brains are the ultimate multitaskers. The brain’s prefrontal cortex can tell us when it is ...

Direct signaling pathways ensure that visual information received by the retinal nerve cells also reaches the midbrain.

The visual cortex and its network of neurons evolved to receive, process, and integrate visual information that enters the brain through the eyes.

The various regions of the visual cortex are known to work together in unison, similarly to an orchestra, to represent and process visual information.

The Backwards Processing Theory According to the backwards processing theory, information travels through circuits of neurons and this information is typically "processed through the visual pathway." ...

Locomotion can even help in processing task-related visual information if walking is not affected by the environment or requires too much visual coordination.

The key components of electrical connections between light receptors in the eye and the impact of these connections on the early steps of visual signal processing have been identified for the ...
