To integrate our visual environment into a unified and coherent perceptual experience, the brain uses multiple processing strategies. Here, Nassi and Callaway review how the primate primary visual ...

New imaging evidence indicates that attention affects neural activity not only in extrastriate cortex, but also at the first stage of cortical information processing in primary visual cortex.

A Yale study explores how visual clutter influences perception, showing that its location affects information efficiency in the brain. It impacts the efficiency of neural communication in the primary ...

Our hands do more than just hold objects. They also facilitate the processing of visual stimuli. When you move your hands, your brain first perceives and interprets sensory information, then it ...

Determining what happens in individual neurons in the visual cortex is an important first step in understanding visual processing and could help researchers figure out how other parts of the brain ...

Visual processing delays can mean the brain is not processing the information being received by the eyes.
