When a mouse sweeps a single whisker across a textured surface, a tight cluster of neurons in its brain lights up within milliseconds. That cluster sits inside a grid of cortical columns, each one ...
The passage of time is sensed, perceived, and experienced, but—unlike for touch, vision, hearing, and olfaction—there exist no sensory receptors for time. This fact has long tantalized neuroscientists ...
The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals modulated to refine perception? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has ...

Researchers reviewed evidence on neural traveling waves and proposed that they serve as a computational framework in the ...
Spiraling waves of neural activity appear and travel in the brain. Scientists hope to learn if these rotating waves on-the-move play a global role in sensing and interpreting internal and external ...
The development of the human brain is one of the most complex biological processes. During the first years of life, enormous ...
