Researchers are using visual tricks to try to better understand canine perception.

Researchers use optical illusions to investigate canine perception.

In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers monitored subsecond changes in levels of the neurotransmitters in the human brain, unlocking new insight into their function.

Using optogenetics, scientists have simulated the sense of smell directly within the mouse brain to investigate the nature of olfactory perception.

The glia seem to make up part of a newly described sensory organ, the discoverers suggest.

Carbon dioxide pumped into a bright chamber mimics a breathing host for the pest to target.

The brain wiring behind scent processing seems to scale across mammalian species.

Advanced single-cell optogenetic tools have enabled researchers to induce a learned behavior in mice without the associated visual cue.

Female zebra finches prefer red-beaked male finches over their orange-beaked counterparts.
