Understanding how the human brain represents the information picked up by the senses is a longstanding objective of neuroscience and psychology studies. Most past studies focusing on the visual cortex ...

Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) School of Engineering have developed a novel reinforcement learning–based generative model to predict neural signals, creating ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

For decades, scientists have searched for a safe way to reach deep parts of the human brain without cutting into the skull.

Researchers are investigating the mechanisms and identifying new areas of the brain that can benefit patients when stimulated. Persons with Parkinson's disease increasingly lose their mobility over ...

In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and at the Allen Institute have created one of the most detailed maps of the mouse brain ...

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

Every day, your brain makes thousands of decisions under uncertainty. Most of the time, you guess right. When you don't, you learn. But when the brain's ability to judge context or assign meaning ...
