Projecting images onto the floor of a maze, rodents can learn behaviors faster. Read More
Researchers reveal people perceive positive images to fade more smoothly than negative or neutral images. The study compliments previous findings that emotional states and environment can affect how we perceive time. Read More
Researchers report the reason for da Vinci's artistic genius may be the result of an eye condition that gave him an unusual ability to recreate 3D shapes. The study reports a number of other great masters may also have suffered from the same condition. Read More
The gene Elovl2 appears to play a significant role in age-associated functional and anatomical aging in mouse retinas. The finding has direct implications for age-related eye diseases, such as macular degeneration. When the expression of the gene was boosted, age-related visual function improved. Read More
A patient missing most of her occipital lobes on both sides of the brain is helping researchers shed light on how the brain processes objects in motion. Read More
Researchers use novel techniques to see how the brain processes visual stimuli that do, or do not, reach our awareness. Read More
Researchers have developed a new method that efficiently turns human stem cells into retinal ganglion cells. Read More
Researchers report visual features modulated by the optokinetic reflex are encoded in the retina. Read More
Researchers report newly hatched ducklings that are shown a substitute mother object with only one eye do not recognize it when they have only the other eye available. Read More
