Mathematical patterns reveal profound truths about the universe and, surprisingly, about our inner lives as well. These five visual math concepts offer unique frameworks for understanding our behavior ...

Researchers identified neurons in the mouse primary visual cortex that encode illusions that receive information from higher ...

Vision happens when patterns of light entering the eye are converted into reliable patterns of brain activity. This ...

Faced with images that break the expected pattern, like a do not enter sign where a stop sign is expected, how does the brain react and learn compared to being shown images which match what was ...

A new study finds that chimpanzee babies learn vocal and visual communication patterns from their mothers. The findings may shed light on the way human babies learn from those close to them.

Scientists have discovered specialized IC-encoder neurons that make the brain “see” illusions, such as squares or triangles that aren’t truly there.

That child’s drawing of a house, tree, or person may represent more than an element of the refrigerator-as-art-gallery. It may predict a child’s intelligence later in life. A child’s intelligence at ...

Visual intelligence and identity innovation reduce risks, improve user access, and deliver measurable ROI. Learn why ...

New research published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) finds that prolonged and/or repeated exposure to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) anesthetic agents (sevoflurane, ...

Several patterns come together in this living space designed by Morgan Farrow of Morgan Farrow Interiors. The scale of the patterns and the strategic use of color makes the space feel polished. Nathan ...
