The performance of conventional computer based on von Neumann architecture is limited
due to the physical separation of memory and processor. By synergistically integrating …

Similarities in neocortical circuit organization across areas and species suggest a common
strategy to process diverse types of information, including sensation from diverse modalities …

Brains contain networks of interconnected neurons and so knowing the network architecture
is essential for understanding brain function. We therefore mapped the synaptic-resolution …

Human eyes possess exceptional image-sensing characteristics such as an extremely wide
field of view, high resolution and sensitivity with low aberration. Biomimetic eyes with such …

Activity-dependent transcriptional responses shape cortical function. However, a
comprehensive understanding of the diversity of these responses across the full range of …

The basic plan of the retina is conserved across vertebrates, yet species differ profoundly in
their visual needs. Retinal cell types may have evolved to accommodate these varied needs …

Traversing sensory environments requires keeping relevant information in mind while
simultaneously processing new inputs. Visual information is kept in working memory via …

Neuroscience research has exploded, with more than fifty thousand neuroscientists applying
increasingly advanced methods. A mountain of new facts and mechanisms has emerged …

Biomimetic eyes, with their excellent imaging functions such as large fields of view and low
aberrations, have shown great potentials in the fields of visual prostheses and robotics …

Why does performing certain tasks cause the aversive experience of mental effort and
concomitant deterioration in task performance? One explanation posits a physical resource …
