A new study questions the longstanding view that the visual system is divided into two pathways, one for object-recognition and the other for spatial tasks. Using computational vision models, ...

Contrary to previous assumptions, visual short-term memory is not merely based on one kind of information about an object, such as only its colour or only its name. Rather, several types of ...

How the human brain organizes its visual memories through precise neural timing has been discovered. Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC; CA, USA) have made a significant ...

Have you ever found yourself so immersed in a project, editing a video, or writing an email that you become literally deaf to ...

When visual information enters the brain, it travels through two pathways that process different aspects of the input. For decades, scientists have hypothesized that one of these pathways, the ventral ...
