Researchers report human echolocation works in tandem with other senses to help deliver vital information for those with visual impairments.
Researchers suggest measuring how fast the brain responds to sounds and sights may help with earlier diagnosis of ASD.
Researchers have discovered a small change in a single protein which turns a cold sensitive receptor into one that senses heat.
DARPA's HAPTIX program seeks to provide amputees with natural touch sensations.
Male fruit flies adapt the tempo and pitch of their mating song based upon the movement and behavior of their desired mate, a new study reports.
