Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

Single neuron, evoked potential and metabolic techniques show that attention influences visual processing in extrastriate cortex. We provide anatomical, electrophysiological and behavioral evidence ...

Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary science that is concerned with the study of the structure and function of the nervous system. It encompasses the evolution, development, cellular and molecular ...

The brains of Neanderthals and ancient humans were remarkably close in volume—roughly 90 cubic inches. But that doesn’t mean they were the same. Scientists studied 32 human and 13 Neanderthal skulls, ...
