For most of us, these illusions are harmless. But my new research, published in Perception, suggests people with visual snow ...

New research shows that the brain’s ability to detect subtle visual changes—like spotting an anomaly on a security monitor—depends on theta-frequency brain waves (3–6 Hz) that rhythmically sweep ...

Yale scientists traced gamma brain waves to thalamus-cortex interactions. The discovery could reveal how brain rhythms shape perception and disease. For more than a century, scientists have observed ...

Researchers shot lasers into brain cells and triggered illusions on demand—a breakthrough that’s rewriting how we see the world.

Neuroscientists have discovered that when the brain is distracted, coordinated “rotating” waves of neural activity help it steer back to focus.

This valuable study uses EEG and computational modeling to investigate hemispheric oscillatory asymmetries in unilateral spatial neglect. The work benefits from rare patient data and a careful ...

When people focus on mental images, their brains use a distinct route from visual attention, showing separate systems for ...

As neuroscientists peel back the layers of perception, they’re finding that our sense of time is less like a clock and more ...

People see the world similarly because our brains share a hidden visual relational pattern. This stays stable even when brain wiring differs.

Recently, there has been a lot of hullabaloo about the idea that large reasoning models (LRM) are unable to think. This is mostly due to a research article published by Apple, "The Illusion of ...

Imagine you are a security guard in one of those casino heist movies where your ability to recognize an emerging crime will ...
