New research reveals that numbers in our visual field can subtly distort how we judge spatial positions, showing that perception is shaped by both numerical magnitude and object-based processing.

Some individuals rely heavily on visual and sound cues when making decisions, and this sensitivity can lead to persistent maladaptive choices.

A new peer-reviewed study led by scientists at the Perception Dynamics Institute and the University of California San Diego ...

It was once believed that mice had relatively poor vision. Turns out mice are far from blind – and studying how their vision ...

Researchers at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience have become the first to fully characterize cell activity from a little relay station in the center of the human brain. This aids our ...

Why does stopping at a red light become automatic? New neuroscience shows how the cerebellum turns visual cues into fast, ...

Following brain injury, mice show sex differences in how their surviving cells compensate to promote recovery.

Researchers have uncovered a surprisingly complex yet precisely ordered map of visual space in area V2 of the cortex. Challenging previously held beliefs, this novel organization redefines mapping of ...

This is a semester-long introductory course in neuroscience, the scientific domain covering how the brain and nervous system interact with and perceive the world around us. Class sessions will consist ...
