Unlocking brain treatment potential from MRI data

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a vital role in medical and neuroscience research as a non-invasive, highly sensitive way of imaging both physical structures and activity inside the human brain. The data from each ...

Creating realistic computational models of the cerebellum

In spite of gigantic advances in medical science over the last century there are still huge gaps in our knowledge of the inner workings of the human brain. For example, how do people in their eighties still remember sights, ...

Researchers study neurology of balancing on two legs

Walking on two legs is inherently unstable, meaning that the human central nervous system must work hard to maintain balance. Walking motion is maintained by two control approaches—feedforward control, in which the body ...

Understanding the intermittencies that lurk in smooth movements

Apparently smooth continuous movements to trace moving objects harbour jerks. These jerks are absent when there is no object to be traced and so are thought to stem from changes in motor instructions anticipated and fed forward ...

Understanding ambiguities in depth perception

Binocular vision allows us to gauge depth. For example a dot directly ahead of the left eye will be at an angle to the right that decreases with distance. So how, ask Eiichi Mitsukura and Shunji Satoh at the University of ...
