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 ...

Scientists discover that sickle cell disease forces the brain to recruit extra "attention backup" to maintain normal cognitive function.

Sickle cell disease is often thought of solely as a blood disorder, but new research from the Wood Neuro Research Group ...

Figure 1. Diagram showing an electrically active cell in a neuronal culture and the process of recording its transmembrane potential for further analysis Neurons are cells that enable the brain to ...

Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

A single session of physical exercise can spawn a boost of neural activity in brain networks that underlie learning and memory, according to a new study led by the University of Iowa. The researchers ...

WOMEN experience unique changes in grey matter volume, white matter tracts, and functional neural network organisation after ...

A new study reveals that astrocytes, once dismissed as mere support cells, play a central role in fear memory.
