Scientists at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health have identified a protein in the visual system of mice that appears to be key for stabilizing the ...

Researchers at the University of Helsinki have made a breakthrough in understanding what neural mechanisms allow the extreme sensitivity of human vision in darkness. The new research shows that humans ...

A new study questions the longstanding view that the visual system is divided into two pathways, one for object-recognition and the other for spatial tasks. Using computational vision models, ...

A new study has shown that the human visual system can 'trick' the brain into making inaccurate assumptions about the size of objects in the world around them. A new study has shown that the human ...

A study carried out by the University of Barcelona and the University of Rochester reveals data on how the visual system can process detailed information about the environment in complex and dynamic ...
