Scientists at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience (MPFI) have recently released research about visual processing in the cerebral cortex which shows evidence that the arrangement of ...

Seeing and imagining use similar brain machinery. New research reveals the brain circuit that identifies what is real, which ...

New research shows that brain changes in the size, white matter integrity and functional connectivity of the visual processing systems of six-month olds are evident well before they show symptoms ...

The study of visual processing and attention in near-hand space has revealed that the proximity of the hands significantly alters perceptual mechanisms. Emerging evidence indicates that objects ...

Why the Brain Splits Visual Processing Across Hemispheres Splitting visual tasks between hemispheres boosts attention and memory while preventing perceptual overload.

Researchers at the National Eye Institute (NEI) report that a brain region in the superior temporal sulcus (fSTS) is crucial for processing and making decisions about visual information.

Blindsight and Visual Processing in Hemianopia Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Blindsight and Visual Processing in Hemianopia.

Visual processing is about how the brain perceives and processes the impressions of the eyes. Problems with processing visual impressions can also impact a variety of other skills.

The researchers enrolled six volunteers and recorded their fMRI responses to these images, focusing on the responses in several visual processing areas.

Neuroscientists have found that a naturally occurring chemical in the brain can enhance visual processing and suggest that this chemical may represent part of the biological basis of visual attention.

More complex processing, performed in the visual cortex and other areas of the brain, enable us to more fully interact with our environment.
