The lateral intraparietal area (LIP), a region of the brain known to play a vital role in spatial and visual processing also has a parallel function, categorizing visual information, a new study suggests.
Researchers show optogenetics can be as good as, if not better than, using electrical stimulation in neuroscience research.
Researchers report on how the brain processes motion and color.
According to new research, multiple cortical regions work together to process sensorimotor information, despite having predetermined specialized roles.
Researchers have discovered how neurons in the lateral intraparietal cortex measure time intervals and accurately reproduce them.
Researchers report synchrony of brain waves within three regions of the brain can 'break down' when visual working memory load becomes too extensive to handle.
Trying to retain too much information in our working memory can lead to a breakdown in communication between areas of the brain responsible for maintaining it, researchers say.
The posterior parietal cortex, an area of the brain implicated in spatial awareness, plays a critical role in visual decision making.
