Neuroscience in 2026: Realistic Milestones the Scientific Community Can Achieve
As we enter 2026, neuroscience stands at a rare inflection point. The convergence of large-scale data generation, artificial intelligence, neurotechnology, and translational medicine is enabling progress that was aspirational only a decade ago.

TMS-evoked phosphenes and oculomotor responses in visual-snow syndrome #neuroscience

TMS-evoked phosphenes and oculomotor responses in visual-snow syndrome
Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS) is a neurological condition characterized by continuous visual disturbances resembling television static across the visual field. Despite its significant impact on quality of life, objective assessment methods remain limited, with diagnosis relying primarily on subjective patient reports. Current understanding of VSS pathophysiology suggests cortical hyperexcitability, but precise mechanisms remain unclear. Here we developed an integrated protocol combining transcrani…

101 Dalmatians: a multimodal naturalistic fMRI dataset in typical development and congenital sensory loss #neuroscience

101 Dalmatians: a multimodal naturalistic fMRI dataset in typical development and congenital sensory loss - Scientific Data
In recent years, neuroscience has increasingly leveraged naturalistic stimuli, like movies and narratives, to investigate cognitive processes underlying real-world human behavior. Here, we present a functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) dataset featuring 50 participants, with and without congenital sensory loss (typical development, congenitally blind and deaf individuals), who were exposed to audiovisual, auditory, or visual versions of the live-action movie 101 Dalmatians. The dataset …

The curse of this day and age is that people expect things to be easy, "intuitive". How did you learn to read and write? How did you master a foreign language? A musical instrument? Or what did you master, really? Or were you forced to master these things? #neuroscience
