The superior colliculus is a midbrain region that is traditionally thought to help animals orient themselves toward important locations in space, like directing their eyes and head toward a bright ...

The primate superior colliculus (SC) is a midbrain nucleus crucial for the control of rapid eye movements (saccades). Its neurons are topographically arranged over the rostrocaudal and mediolateral ...

Researchers have discovered that a brain area preserved through evolution, called the superior colliculus, is more crucial for vision than we thought. Researchers at the Netherlands Institute for ...

The superior colliculus in the mammalian brain takes on many important tasks by making sense of our environment. Any mistakes during the development of this brain region can lead to severe ...

Having two eyes is crucial to escaping danger, according to a new study conducted by an international team of researchers. According to the first author of the paper, Assistant Professor Robin ...

A new study suggests that the superior colliculus, a small pea-sized region in the human brain plays a more significant role than previously thought. The study says that superior colliculus has been ...

Researchers at the National Eye Institute (NEI) have defined a crucial window of time that mice need to key in on visual events. As the brain processes visual information, an evolutionarily conserved ...

In our lab, we develop and utilize sophisticated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods to study a variety of problems in neuroscience. A primary focus of the lab is to understand the basic physics ...
