The somatosensory cortex is a region of the mammalian brain known to play a crucial role in the processing of sensory information, including tactile sensations, temperature and pain. While this brain ...
The Multi-Sensory Convergence Ladder: As signals ascend deeper into the fish’s forebrain, specifically into a structure called the pallium, single-sense neurons give way to multi-sensory cells. This ...
The passage of time is sensed, perceived, and experienced, but—unlike for touch, vision, hearing, and olfaction—there exist no sensory receptors for time. This fact has long tantalized neuroscientists ...

Learning to speak may depend less on your mouth than on how your brain hears sound
Researchers have found that the brain’s ability to hear and evaluate its own speech may matter more for learning new vocal ...
Single neurons in mouse sensorimotor cortex are organized by their activity features into distinct subpopulations with area-spanning footprints whose boundaries align closely with anatomical and ...
Our body movements profoundly impact how our brain processes sensory information. Historically, it was believed that the brain's primary motor cortex played a key role in modulating sensory ...
Spiraling waves of neural activity appear and travel in the brain. Scientists hope to learn if these rotating waves on the move play a global role in sensing and interpreting internal and external ...
Optical imaging and optogenetic inactivation of dorsal mouse neocortex reveal an unexpected role for retrosplenial cortex in the context-dependent transformation of whisker sensory information into ...
In the early 20th century, pioneering neurosurgeon Dr. Wilder Penfield made a groundbreaking discovery. While in the operating room, Penfield stimulated ...
