The study provides new insights into the functions of ancestral cortices but also raises fundamental questions about how and when key neural computations evolved in turtles.
Scientists have discovered that turtles possess advanced visual processing abilities once thought to be unique to mammals.
Blindsight describes the phenomenon whereby individuals with damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) retain certain visually guided behaviours despite an absence of conscious visual perception. In ...
Gene therapy with voretigene neparvovec-rzyl partially restores geniculostriate pathway function in LCA2 patients, improving visual processing. Initial LCA2 pathology shifts visual processing from the ...
A small team of brain researchers at South China Normal University, working with a colleague from the University of New South Wales, has found that the visual processing parts of the brain light up in ...
Made of silicon, these in-sensor visual processing arrays can both capture and process visual data in the analog domain, as opposed to conventional systems that often physically separate these ...
