Scientists have developed a new machine learning method that reveals surprisingly consistent intrinsic brain patterns across different subjects by disentangling these patterns from the effect of ...

The brain’s chatter has always been partly out of reach, with electrical spikes easy to record but the chemical whispers ...

At the heart of this research is a miniaturized transcranial optogenetic neural stimulator. This innovative device operates wirelessly, enabling real-time modulation of cortical activity. Key features ...

Researchers have discovered how two brain areas, neocortex and thalamus, work together to detect discrepancies between what animals expect from their environment and actual events. These prediction ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

A long-term study shows how screen time in babies may alter brain development and increase vulnerability to anxiety years ...

When an animal takes notice of an approaching figure, it needs to determine what it is, and quickly. In nature, competition and survival dictate that it’s better to think fast—that is, for the brain ...

(l-r) David Golomb and David Kleinfeld are two of the principal investigators on a new NIH BRAIN Initiative grant. or all animals, sensory processing is a matter of survival. Sight, smell, touch, ...

Most of us think little of why we feel pleasantly full after eating a big holiday meal, why we start to cough after accidentally inhaling campfire smoke, or why we are hit with sudden nausea after ...

We are always game for trendy wellness suggestions that are actually effective and before the mid-week blues hit us, we got ...
