A study by cognitive neuroscientists at SISSA investigated how the human brain processes space and time, uncovering that ...

The brain processes space and time differently across regions, revealing a functional hierarchy in perception.

In anterior regions, such as the frontal cortex, space and time are processed independently, with distinct neural populations ...

The human brain is remarkable for its ability to synthesize sensory inputs into a coherent perception of the external world.

Imagine a swarm of fireflies, flickering lights on and off in the nighttime space. How does the human brain process and ...

Extracellular recordings were made from the medial superior temporal area (MST), the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) and the medial intraparietal area (MIP) in two rhesus monkeys. The animals ...

The demonstration that human thermosensory cortex is located in insular cortex, rather than in parietal somatosensory areas, is significant for several reasons. This directly confirms the ...

Instead if we pulse the parietal cortex, we will decrease selectively the likability of paintings which are representational because this area is more involved in the recognition of objects.” ...

(Left Panel) Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was guided to the region in the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) that was maximally connected to the hippocampus at baseline.
