Animals don't just see the world differently from one another, they experience time itself at dramatically different speeds.

"We don't yet know how this variation in visual temporal resolution might affect our day-to-day lives, but we believe that individual differences in perception speed might become apparent in ...

Stearns and Poletti present a technically impressive study that aims to uncover a deeper understanding of microsaccade function: their role in perceptual modulation and the associated temporal ...

For the first time, neuroscientists have established a link between shifts in our visual perception and the cadence of our steps while walking. The research, published in Nature Communications, shows ...

Past research has suggested that people's cultural differences may result in differences in basic visual perception. New research found no evidence that these differences play a significant role in ...

A series of recent brain-imaging studies has begun to explain a central mystery of the psychedelic experience: why people on ...

Although humans' visual perception of the world appears complete, our eyes contain a visual blind spot where the optic nerve ...

To what extent has Earth’s gravity shaped our cognitive and brain functions? Utilizing spaceflight and a ground-based analog, a new study shows that the human brain relies on bodily gravitational ...

Imagine that you are watching a crowded hang-gliding competition, keeping track of a red and orange glider's skillful movements. Our brain uses separate circuits to achieve such outstanding tracking ...

Odors seem to impact our visual perception of colors, adjusting our perception of a ‘neutral’ color. A recent study first authored by Ryann Ward of Liverpool John Moores University (UK), has revealed ...
