To understand whether communication between the brain's language and sensory association systems is necessary for representing information about objects, the authors tested whether stroke-induced ...

The auditory system is the sensory system for hearing. It consists of the outer ear (the auricle and auditory canal), the middle ear (the tympanic membrane, malleus, incus and stapes), the inner ...

A KAIST research team has identified, for the first time, a brain circuit specifically responsible for forming fear memories ...

This is true in set-ups where artificial systems use chemical sensors to "smell" as well as in systems that detect other sensory input. The researchers' work on the olfactory system has also yielded ...

Third, we illustrate the utility of the dataset to reveal relationships between different organizational properties of this sensory system, and the new questions these stimulate. Such examples ...

"In this paper, however, we show that the limits of seeing are not just defined by these biophysical constraints, but also by the actions and movements that impose changes on the sensory system," ...

The principle involves recording electrical potentials from different parts of the nervous system after stimulating appropriate sensory organs or neural pathways, including visual, auditory, ...
