Brain mapping is a fascinating scientific endeavour that investigates how our brains are structured and how they change over time. This process examines how learning, ageing, mental illness ...

Researchers have systematically detailed, step by step, how cognitive maps form in the brain's hippocampus -- a region responsible for learning and memory.

A new study led by researchers at Mass General Brigham suggests that different brain regions activated by creative tasks are ...

From this information, he was able to map the motor cortex, the very part of the brain you can map in this feature's activity.

Dubbed the “creativity circuit,” damage to this area due to injury or brain disease resulted in both decreases and increases ...

Yet it is increasingly clear that cognitive functions cannot be pinned to spots on the brain like towns on a map. A given mental task may involve a complicated web of circuits, which interact in ...

Neuroscientists use cellular and molecular biology, anatomy and physiology, human behavior and cognition, and other disciplines, to map the brain at a mechanistic level. Humans have an estimated ...

At Detroit’s Wayne State University, she and her team use MRI technology to check the growth of a fetus’s brain and map the neural connectivity within it, creating a groundbreaking snapshot of ...

At the SFU's School of Engineering Science, Medical Image Analysis Laboratory, we are working on three main goals for mapping brain structure and function: To make very detailed morphometric ...
