Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things happen. But how it processes what you see—like objects or images—has been a ...

How the human brain organizes its visual memories through precise neural timing has been discovered. Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC; CA, USA) have made a significant ...

Why does the brain split visual spatial perception between its hemispheres? A new review by neuroscientists examines the advantages and trade-offs, and how the brain ultimately makes vision feel ...

New research from UC Santa Barbara shows that mind-wandering — those moments where our attention drifts away from a task at ...

Timothy Vickery, Ph.D., is an associate professor in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at the University of Delaware. The cognitive neuroscientist is primarily interested in visual ...

In the first study of its kind, neuroscientists have shown the real-world benefits that sunlight gives the brain, beyond ...

Researchers at USC have made a significant breakthrough in understanding how the human brain forms, stores and recalls visual memories. A new study, published in Advanced Science, harnesses human ...

Differences in the distribution of certain proteins and markers in the brain may explain why some people first experience vision changes instead of memory loss in Alzheimer's disease, finds a new ...
