A growing body of neuroimaging research is pinpointing exactly how psychedelic drugs hijack the brain’s visual system to ...
A series of recent brain-imaging studies has begun to explain a central mystery of the psychedelic experience: why people on psilocybin report that memories seem to blend with what they are actually ...
For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?
Specific rhythms of flickering light can synchronise brain activity, offering clues about perception and possible future ...
Inside the Visual Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at ASU, researchers investigate how the brain turns sensory signals into meaningful perception. Led by Professor Gi-Yeul Bae at the Department of ...
We may not realize it, but our eyes constantly make rapid movements—two to three per second—even when we're looking at the same spot. Yet despite these frequent eye movements, we still perceive what ...
A new study reveals that your heart rate slows down more when you make a visual mistake than when you see things correctly. This suggests our bodies physically react to perceptual errors in real-time.
When you get better at a skill-recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game-sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...
New research reveals that prolonged stress alters brain function, reducing sensitivity to sound over time. This study uncovers how the brain adapts to chronic stress, prioritizing other senses while ...
Suki Chan and co-editor Michael Ellis of 'Superman' fame discuss her debut feature, their collaboration, artistic ...
A tiny region in the brain works like a reset button that separates memory of one meaningful event from the next. Without this reset mechanism, moments could blur together and lead to the kinds of ...
