Theories have proposed that, in sensory cortices, learning can enhance top-down modulation by higher brain areas while reducing bottom-up sensory drives. To address circuit mechanisms underlying this ...

The cerebellum facilitates associative learning—wherein visual information is linked to motor actions—by strengthening ...

It was once believed that mice had relatively poor vision. Turns out mice are far from blind – and studying how their vision ...

A large body of research indicates that visual cues help us to better retrieve and remember information. The research outcomes on visual learning make complete sense when you consider that our brain ...

Why does stopping at a red light become automatic? New neuroscience shows how the cerebellum turns visual cues into fast, ...

New research published in Neuropsychologia provides evidence that adults with dyslexia process visual information differently than typical readers, even when viewing non-text objects. The findings ...

The Cognitive Health Research Laboratory at Laurentian University is funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation's Leaders Opportunity Fund. Who hasn’t heard the statement that we only use 10 per ...
