Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain's wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

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

Brain development does not end at 25 but continues into the early 30s as neural networks become more efficient and ...

Studies of brain injuries and electrical stimulation seemed to bear this out. Damaging the Broca’s area, for instance, interfered with speech, and stimulating specific tissues could lead to specific ...

Researchers identified DMTF1 as a key transcription factor driving neural stem cell regeneration during aging. The study ...

Lifelong plasticity is a core principle of neuroscience, yet it operates within real limits shaped by effort, stress and ...

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...

Researchers have developed a machine learning model capable of predicting whether a patient with depression will respond to ...
