Neural binding
Neural Binding
Neural binding (pronunciation: /ˈnʊərəl ˈbaɪndɪŋ/) is a term used in neuroscience to describe the process by which different neural responses are combined to form a coherent, unified representation of information in the brain.
Etymology
The term "neural binding" is derived from the words "neural", relating to the neurons or the nervous system, and "binding", which refers to the process of linking or combining things together.
Definition
Neural binding is a phenomenon that allows for the integration of information processed in different regions of the brain. It is a crucial aspect of cognitive processing, enabling the brain to generate a unified perception of the world from diverse sensory inputs.
