The nervous system is made up of a web of interacting neuronal networks that filter, remember and transform information about a person's internal and external states. The networks which mediate this ...

A peer-reviewed paper published in Frontiers in Psychology proposes that consciousness is not simply a byproduct of brain activity but instead acts as a top-down force that shapes neural processes.

Researchers successfully reconstruct high-quality 10-second videos from mouse brain activity using single-cell recordings and a dynamic neural encoding model.

Scientists have successfully reconstructed videos purely from the brain activity of mice, showing what the mice were seeing, ...

New research suggests Intelligence may emerge from how the brain’s networks work together rather than a single “intelligence ...

This post is in response to Consciousness and Integrated Information Theory By Paul L. Nunez PhD Does consciousness arise exclusively from complex interactions in brain tissue (materialism)? Or does ...

In this post, the last of a five-part series, we will acquire an understanding of various theories that emphasize the importance of top-down signaling in shaping and enabling conscious perception.

If you read popular science books about the brain, you might have encountered a new “grand theory” called predictive processing. If you haven’t yet, you will. Over the last two decades, it has gone ...

Researchers identify that the brain's sensory checkpoint (TRN) undergoes a molecular "upgrade" in adulthood for high-resolution perception.

The dominant theory in neuroscience has been that the sensory processing circuits in our brain are finalized in early ...
