The dominant theory in neuroscience has been that the sensory processing circuits in our brain are finalized in early ...

Our raw sensory experiences — what we see, hear, feel, taste, and smell — make up our construction the world around us. But how? How does this continuous stream of raw data translate into a seamless ...

Sensory processing disorder—also known as SPD or sensory integration disorder—is a term describing a collection of challenges that occur when the senses fail to respond properly to the outside world.

Earlier this week, there was an article in The Boston Globe about sensory processing disorder. It stated that a group of researchers, families, and occupational therapists is aggressively lobbying to ...

Sensory deprivation is associated with striking crossmodal neuroplastic changes in the brain. Following sensory deprivation (for example, blindness or deafness), there is functional recruitment of ...

A study published in Nature provides insight into how the brain processes sensory information from the internal organs. Researchers at Harvard Medical School used high-resolution imaging to identify ...

Various areas of the brain process our sensory experiences. How the areas of the cerebral cortex communicate with each other and process sensory information has long puzzled neuroscientists. Exploring ...

Sensory processing differences refer to atypical ways in which the brain receives, organizes, and responds to sensory inputs such as sound, touch, light, movement ...

In the face of fierce competition from e-commerce players, brick-and-mortar retailers are increasingly looking to lure customers with in-store experiences that engage all the senses — think flashy ...

Researchers have found that boys and girls with sensory processing disorder (SPD) have altered pathways for brain connectivity when compared to typically developing children, and the difference ...
