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

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 ...

Modern neuroscience understands the brain as a set of specialized systems. Aspects of brain function such as attention, ...

Researchers at University of Notre Dame reveal evidence for the Network Neuroscience Theory, showing intelligence as ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

At the turn of the 20th century, Korbinian Brodmann released one of the most consequential brain maps ever. By studying the humps, grooves, layers, and cells of the cortex—the outermost layer of the ...

An AI-produced rendering shows a map of mouse brain regions, overlaid with network motifs. (UCSF Illustration) Scientists say an artificial intelligence program that they compare to ChatGPT has helped ...

Background: Neurons have dominated neuroscience research for decades, but a growing body of evidence suggests that a group of non-neuronal brain cells called glia may play an equal or greater role in ...

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