Researchers discover the activity of two specific neuron types, somatostatin and parvalbumin neurons, correlates with foraging decisions in mice.
A new study reports the anterior cingulate cortex intervenes when driving distracted, but not when texting and driving.
A new study reports people who tend to act impulsively or are prone to sensation seeking show differences in brain structure.
A new study reveals a psychostimulant prescribed for ADHD increases glutamate in the brains of healthy people, resulting in more positive emotions.
Researchers report the anterior cingulate cortex, an area of the brain associated with empathy, activates very weakly in people with autism.
Researchers report veterans with PTSD were better able to manage invasive traumatic memories with the help of mindfulness training.
A new study reports our level of brain activity while at rest is linked to our ability to perform well in cognitive tests.
A new study builds on previous findings that demonstrate EEG recordings of the rostral anterior cingulate cortex can predict eventual response to treatments for depression.
Study reveals specific neurons in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex that become active when people are faced with the decision to learn or hide from information about an adverse event the person is not able to prevent.
Studying brain tissue samples from people with ASD revealed a common set of alterations in genes associated with synaptic communication between neurons. The changes were identified mainly in neurons in the uppermost layers of the neocortex.
