Can the brain keep working when its architecture changes? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have discovered ...

Understanding how the brain creates conscious experience remains one of science’s most difficult challenges. Brain scans and ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

From school trips to poolside suites, a new lodge is upping the luxury credentials of the west coast’s beloved holiday island ...

Your ability to notice what matters visually comes from an ancient brain system over 500 million years old.

A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and even identified curious behavior by some neurons that had gone unnoticed in ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...

Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds, behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published Nov. 25 in Neuron, finds in mice that via specific circuits, ...

MIT researchers discovered that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t just send generic control signals—it tailors its messages to different brain regions based on arousal and movement. Credit: ...

This important study provides evidence supporting the idea that postnatal experience plays an instructive role in shaping the patterns of functional connectivity between extrastriate visual cortex and ...
