New research suggests that the electrical complexity of the brain diminishes in early Alzheimer’s disease, potentially ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba and their collaborators have demonstrated that learning from both rewarding and aversive ...

How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

Brain development does not end at 25 but continues into the early 30s as neural networks become more efficient and ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain's wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Scientists found our brain may organize behavior by activity patterns rather than fixed regions, reshaping how brain control ...

A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.

Studies of brain injuries and electrical stimulation seemed to bear this out. Damaging the Broca’s area, for instance, interfered with speech, and stimulating specific tissues could lead to specific ...

The ability to synchronize brain activity with others may serve as a protective shield against the psychological fallout of ...
