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

A surprising new brain study suggests that remembering life events and recalling facts may rely on the same neural machinery.

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 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 ...

Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...

Scientists uncover how brain shrinkage across multiple regions accelerates memory decline in healthy ageing adults.

Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute have discovered that in the cerebral cortex, synaptic signal transmission between brain cells functions very reliably even at low ...

Explaining about the science of `Thinking', Cognitive Psychologist Dr Srikanth Dandotkar, said that students who understand ...

A new doctoral dissertation shows that gambling disorder is linked to brain networks involved in self-control and brain ...

Spending time in the weightless environment of microgravity can have some dramatic effects on the human body, but scientists ...
