"This undermines the whole concept of the visual system in mammalian cortex as a perfect hierarchy with V1 as the gatekeeper and raises a multitude of questions, including how these two parallel ...

Other important areas in this lobe are the prefrontal cortex and the motor cortex ... These inputs are then converted into various visual data, like color, movement, and position.

Your visual system can easily spot it ... for tuned neurons in motor cortex, and for a combination of a limited number of basic modules, each generating a force field and each modulated by ...

David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel discovered how the cerebral cortex processes visual information. Their research won them the ...

Scientists studying brain process involved in sight have found the visual cortex also uses information ... this auditory input enables the visual system to predict incoming information and could ...

"In the ventral pathway (visual areas V1–V4 and the posterior inferior temporal cortex), viewing of a small foveolar spot elicits a ring of multiple (eight) foveolar representations per ...

When you see a bag of carrots at the grocery store, does your mind go to potatoes and parsnips or buffalo wings and celery? It depends, of course, on whether you're making a hearty winter stew or ...

The neocortex comprises the largest part of the cerebral cortex and is the outermost ... around the hierarchy of information of the visual system. In this system, a large number of specialized ...

Classically, models of the visual system have shown information flow from the primary visual cortex to more specialized areas that perform required functions, such as image forming and movement.

The motor cortex, the part of the ... vocabulary rely on only audio or visual information, such as studying written word lists. Our findings shed light on why learning techniques that integrate the ...

The role of dreams is to ensure that the brain's visual cortex is stimulated during sleep. Otherwise, if the visual system were deprived of input all night long, the visual cortex's function might ...
