A UNIGE team has discovered a new brain mechanism responsible for modulating sensory signals. It could be involved in the ...

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 ...

The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals ...

Like AI, cells change and learn from experience, while unlike computer chips they arrive naturally preprogrammed ...

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 ...

In 1905, Einstein established relativity under the condition of denying the absolute space-time valid in Newtonian mechanics. In those days, the quantum theory was also established by accepting De ...

UNIGE researchers have identified a feedback loop from the thalamus to the somatosensory cortex that modulates touch ...

New research reveals this inconsistency may be due to a feedback loop between the thalamus and somatosensory cortex, where thalamic input subtly changes how sensitive cortical neurons are to incoming ...
