Rats that received the treatment exhibited enhanced activity between two brain regions: the superior colliculus (a brain region associated with eye movement and attention) and the mediodorsal ...

The superior colliculus contains a map of the visual field on its surface, Ito said. The new discovery indicates that it contains a map of the tongue's surface, too. "It's not intuitive," Goldberg ...

“The identification of these pathways is important for our understanding ... the researchers recorded the activity of the neurons in the superior colliculus, a relatively primal area that ...
