Visual shape processing and perception constitute a central pillar in understanding how the human brain interprets complex visual stimuli. Research in this field has revealed a multifaceted framework ...

The human visual system excels in interpreting complex visual scenes, with symmetry perception playing a pivotal role in organising sensory input into coherent representations. Visual symmetry ...

Blinking is one of the most frequent human activities, typically occurring every two to 10 seconds or about 10 blinks per minute. It has long been understood that blinking has protective effects for ...

Robots and self-driving cars could soon benefit from a new kind of brain-inspired hardware that can allegedly detect movement and react faster than a human. A new study published in the journal Nature ...

Whether we’re staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

Gene therapy with voretigene neparvovec-rzyl partially restores geniculostriate pathway function in LCA2 patients, improving visual processing. Initial LCA2 pathology shifts visual processing from the ...

To what extent has Earth’s gravity shaped our cognitive and brain functions? Utilizing spaceflight and a ground-based analog, a new study shows that the human brain relies on bodily gravitational ...

Learn how our brains store images that help us achieve flashes of insight when looking at seemingly incomprehensible visual tests.

Here is an optical illusion challenge that will test your visual processing speed, attention to detail, and focus. There is a ...

Sounds can alter the way the brain interprets what it sees. This is the key finding of a new study by SISSA researchers in Trieste, published in PLOS Computational Biology. The research shows that, ...

New research published in Neuropsychologia provides evidence that adults with dyslexia process visual information differently than typical readers, even when viewing non-text objects. The findings ...

Whether we're staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...
