The frequent occurrence of a pattern in a network, however, is not strictly correlated with a biological function. Network topologies reflect evolutionary origins and therefore the selection of ...

Understand what activation functions are and why they’re essential in deep learning! This beginner-friendly explanation ...

Neuroscientists have identified face-recognition areas based on what parts of the brain they link to. For more than a decade, neuroscientists have known that many of the cells in a brain region called ...

Patterns of brain connectivity take us a step closer to understanding the key principles of cognition. The patterns created by neurons in the brain can be used to shine a light on how the brain ...

December 29, 2011 — A study of relatively healthy elderly adults found that those with diets rich in several vitamins or omega-3 fatty acids had better cognitive function and less brain atrophy ...

A study found that poor sleep can negatively impact how well the brain flushes out toxins, increasing the risk of dementia.

Following the course of lung function in treatment-naïve patients, researchers found that lung function decline does not accelerate prior to mechanical ventilation. Patterns in the decline of lung ...

A new study sheds light on sleep and cognitive changes in older adults. Namely, sleeping for a short amount of time and sleep variability were linked to poor cognitive function, the authors reported.

Most people rarely think about how they breathe unless experiencing respiratory distress. Yet emerging research suggests that the pathway through which we inhale and exhale – nose versus mouth – ...
