An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...

Motion, color, light and shadow: everything we see is the result of complex computations in our brain – or, more precisely, in the visual cortex. This is where stimuli that hit our retina are broken ...

A new MIT study illustrates how areas within the brain’s executive control center tailor their messages in specific circuits with other brain regions to influence them with information about behavior ...
