A new study reports the elephantnose fish utilizes both its eyes and electrolocation to explore objects in its environment.
According to researchers, the ambient scent of foods can help to reduce cravings and satisfy the appetite.
Study provides insight into the neural mechanisms of how prey animals use the sounds or actions of others to infer danger and respond defensively.
Researchers have successfully mapped brain networks that are responsible for perception and movements linked to touch. The findings may provide new insights into the connection between movement and touch.
A new study that illustrates the computational basis of sensory integration may serve as a general model for insects, animals and humans.
Researchers demonstrate how the transmission of sensory information from one cortical area to connected areas depends on the specific task at hand and goal directed behavior.
Researchers were able to predict which worms would outlive each other by measuring how they move towards an appealing odor.
According to a new study, babies' brains respond not only to the presence of visual stimuli, but also the expectation of the stimuli.
Researchers have proposed a computational model that could help explain multisensory integration in humans.
Inhibition of the P2X4 protein receptor in sensory neurons decreases sensitivity to touch, a new study reports. The findings could have implications for the development of new topical treatments for psoriasis and dermatitis.
Researchers have discovered a small change in a single protein which turns a cold sensitive receptor into one that senses heat.
A new study reveals how three proteins associated with autism and other brain disorders, help to wire up specific areas of the brain responsible for sensory processing.
