"This study elegantly shows how analysis of eye movement sheds more light on brain plasticity- an ability that is at the core of the brain's capacity to adapt and function. More specifically, it shows ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

As in larger brains, mouse visual cortex neurons with the same function cluster in columns. For over 50 years, it has been known that in the cerebral cortex of many mammals, neurons with the same ...

Newborns track faces from birth. But what happens when screens replace human eyes? The answer may shape how the next ...

Studies have shown that even a few hours of monocular deprivation can markedly improve the visual function of the deprived eye in adults. However, the underlying neural mechanisms of this ocular ...

Your ability to notice what matters visually comes from an ancient brain system over 500 million years old.

Infrared thermography image in an awake rat. The average temperature in the center of the cornea is 34°C. IN-UMH-CSIC. Nerve fibers on the eye surface are involved in many relevant physiological ...

For over 50 years, it has been known that in the cerebral cortex of many mammals, neurons with the same function are grouped into columns. Now, for the first time, researchers at the Max Planck ...
