Imagine a swarm of fireflies, flickering lights on and off in the nighttime space. How does the human brain process and integrate information about duration and spatial position enabling this vision?

Vision feels like a camera feed from the eyes, but new work on a hidden brain circuit suggests what we see is constantly edited by internal signals about how alert, focused, or distracted we are.

You can see it coming in right there, that little spot,” says neuroscientist and engineer Laura Lewis. A remarkably bright pulsing dot has appeared on the monitor in front of us. We are watching, in ...

A study conducted by cognitive neuroscientists at SISSA explored the relationship between the processing of space and time in the human brain, revealing that these two types of information are only ...
