Various areas of the brain process our sensory experiences. How the areas of the cerebral cortex communicate with each other and process sensory information has long puzzled neuroscientists. Exploring ...

If you stimulate an auditory nerve cell over and over in a uniform pattern in the lab, it quickly runs out of the chemicals that it uses to send messages from the ear to the brain. The cell, in effect ...

Researchers have designed a new computational model to study how nerve cells in the visual cortex process natural stimuli At any given moment, the neuronal circuits in the brain receive and process ...
