Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, ...
MIT scientists found that what we see is strongly influenced by how alert or active we are. Parts of the brain responsible ...
Neural circuits produce electrical patterns very early in the brain's development process, even before senses are active.
MIT researchers discovered that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t just send generic control signals—it tailors its messages to ...
Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive ...
New research shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t simply broadcast generic commands to sensory regions—it sends finely tailored signals that shape how the brain processes vision depending on ...
The human brain isn’t a blank slate waiting to be written by experience, according to research that challenges the ...
Van Andel Institute scientists have identified a series of processes that help the brain adapt to damage caused by breakdowns in circuits that govern movement, cognition and sensory perception.
