Bilateral stimulation is the use of visual, auditory, or tactile external stimuli occurring in a rhythmic side-to-side pattern. It is a core element of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing ...

A gentle flicker of light and a steady hum of sound might help slow the course of Alzheimer’s disease. That’s the idea behind a novel therapy developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of ...

The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals modulated to refine perception? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has ...

Sometimes a gentle touch feels sharp and distinct, other times it fades into the background. This inconsistency isn’t just mood—it’s biology. Scientists found that the thalamus doesn’t just relay ...

Humans and mice share persistent brain-activity patterns in response to adverse sensory experience, scientists find, opening a window to our emotions and, perhaps, neuropsychiatric disorders. We don't ...

Sensory discrimination and decision-making strategies are pivotal for understanding how subtle differences between stimuli are perceived and categorised. These processes underpin quality assurance ...

This important study combines optogenetic manipulations and wide-field imaging to show that the retrosplenial cortex controls behavioral responses to whisker deflection in a context-dependent manner.

Pueblo's C.A.R.E. Inc. has opened a "sensory room" for intellectually and developmentally disabled adults, which offers much ...

Diane Chan (left) and Li-Huei Tsai (right) discuss the research in MIT lab where volunteers receive 40Hz stimulation and their response is measured using EEG. A new research paper documents the ...
