The Brain's Slowdown During Focused Gaze.

The brain can switch between slow and fast integration of information, allowing it to modulate the timescales on which it operates, according to a new study. The structure of neural networks determines the speed at which information is integrated, which may have implications for future research on brain function and cognitive processes. The study also provides insight into how the brain can adapt to different situations and tasks, and how different timescales can arise and change.
