A new study provides the best evidence to date that the connection patterns between various parts of the human brain can tell scientists the specialized functions of each region.

Using single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic screening, the researchers identified key surface proteins that mediate ...

Just a few fibers are enough for the two hemispheres of the brain to communicate with each other. This was shown by a new international study led by Professor Dr Michael Miller (University of ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (Duncan NRI) at Texas ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge found that reduced sleep can negatively impact how well the glymphatic system ...

Scientists develop artificial neurons that physically mimic brain activity, paving the way for low-power, high-efficiency AI ...

To navigate something as complex and dynamic as the brain, a map would help. Researchers have learned an enormous amount about how we think, what drives our behaviors, and why we feel the way we do ...

Learning to code doesn’t require new brain systems—it builds on the ones we already use for logic and reasoning.

A new advanced imaging study led by scientists from the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College London (ICL), has looked at what happens in people's brains when they take the potent ...

New research shows that during moments of lost focus after poor sleep, the brain releases a wave of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)—the same cleansing process that normally occurs during deep sleep.

Scientists have identified hundreds of genes that may increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease but the roles these ...
