Mice moving tiny steering wheels to control shapes on a screen have given scientists an unprecedented view of how decisions unfold across the brain. For the first time, researchers have mapped ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...

The human brain is often compared to a computer, but the latest wave of research shows it is closer to a self-building city, complete with blueprints, zoning rules, and emergent neighborhoods that ...

Researchers have developed the first activity-based maps of the prefrontal cortex, challenging traditional descriptions of ...

Brain-wide map showing 75,000 analysed neurons lighting up during different stages of decision-making. At the beginning of the trial, the activity is quiet. Then it builds up in the visual areas at ...

A key to understanding the brain lies in unpacking how hundreds of interconnected brain areas process information that leads to various outputs. In order to try to understand this, researchers ...

After nine years of painstaking work, an international team of researchers on Wednesday published a precise map of the vision centers of a mouse brain, revealing the exquisite structures and ...

This so-called Brain Activity Map project is inspired by the success of the Human Genome Project in mapping the genetic code. The proposal was outlined in the journal Neuron last summer by a group of ...

Machine learning decodes brain signals for paralysis recovery in just one second using sensors placed on scalp not inside ...

New research has highlighted the importance of the "caudate".

New brain imaging research shows grip strength is linked to activity deep in the aging brain, offering clues to early ...
