Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.
As in larger brains, mouse visual cortex neurons with the same function cluster in columns. For over 50 years, it has been known that in the cerebral cortex of many mammals, neurons with the same ...

Scientists reconstructed videos straight from a mouse’s brain and learned something about cognition in the process
Open the Youtube video Neuroscientists have successfully reconstructed moving images directly from the brain activity of mice ...
The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called ...
New research from Washington University in St. Louis reveals that neurons in the visual cortex — the part of the brain that processes visual stimuli — change their responses to the same stimulus over ...

New brain-recording tools aim to better track neurons’ electrical spikes
A next-generation silicon brain probe called Neuropixels Ultra more than doubles the number of individual neurons scientists ...
Every illusion has a backstage crew. New research shows the brain’s own “puppet strings”—special neurons that quietly tug our perception—help us see edges and shapes that don’t actually exist. When ...
The 1950s were a relatively rudimentary era for experimental neurophysiology. Recording the electrical activity of neurons wasn’t uncommon, but the methods often demanded considerable patience and ...
Cells called astrocytes are about as abundant in the brain as neurons, but scientists have spent much less time figuring out how they contribute to brain functions. A novel study by MIT researchers at ...
