It has been unclear how to build simulations of entire neural circuits with only measurements from a dead fly’s brain. Using machine learning to combine a wiring diagram with knowledge of the ...

Scientists say a new kind of AI could bridge the gap between current systems and machines that learn and think more like us.

In the split second that is needed to view a stop sign and react to it, our brain navigates a complex process that transitions seamlessly from perception to action control. This ability to halt or ...

The brain of humans and other animals is known to contribute to the protection of the body from infections. Past studies have ...

A single neural thread in the brain may explain why some people who are hurt lash out while others turn the pain inward. A ...

By doing simple brain exercises you can improve memory, boost attention and contribute to long-term cognitive health. From ...

Our brains have an extraordinary ability to adapt and learn, a process known as neuroplasticity. From navigating a new city to mastering a new skill, neuroplasticity allows us to reshape our neural ...

In a recent review published in the journal Current Biology, researchers examined the origins, mechanisms, and significance of interoception (the sensing and processing of internal bodily states) and ...

As far as we know, this is the smallest neural implant that will measure electrical activity in the brain and then report it ...
