Vision loss has long been treated as a one-way street, a devastating endpoint rather than a problem the brain might quietly work to solve. A wave of research is now overturning that assumption, ...

While visual training will likely continue to be a productive part of treatment for people with hemianopia, the EPFL study ...

Blindness affects millions of people worldwide and severely limits their independence, daily functioning, and overall quality of life. In Spain, the prevalence of blindness is estimated at 0.17% , ...

Neuralink’s Blindsight implant has received FDA breakthrough status, aiming to restore sight by stimulating the visual cortex ...

The brain shows a capacity to recover from traumatic injury, which somewhat contradicts the widely accepted idea that neurons do not regenerate. So how is recovery possible?

Scientists have long known that the brain's visual system isn't fully hardwired from the start-it becomes refined by what babies see-but the authors of a new MIT study still weren't prepared for the ...

Why do our mental images stay sharp even when we are moving fast? A team of neuroscientists led by Professor Maximilian Jösch at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) has identified a ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

The 1950s were a relatively rudimentary era for experimental neurophysiology. Recording the electrical activity of neurons wasn’t uncommon, but the methods often demanded considerable patience and ...

Spot the hidden number 3 in a 9-second brain teaser optical illusion that tests observation, IQ, and visual perception skills ...
