Researchers have created a computer model based on the dynamics of brain cells and its neural connections. They hope the model will help them understand why certain portions of the brain work together when a person daydreams.
Using MEG brain scans, which are a speedier alternative to fMRI, researchers are discovering new insights into how brain regions work together.
Disruptions in brain networks emerge around the same time as chemical markers for Alzheimer's disease appear in spinal fluid, new research suggests.
A new study looks at how the brain changes as we age and how different areas of the brain communicate with one another.
Applying social network models to the brain reveals neural networks responsible for higher cognition, a new study reports.
Researchers visualize different activation systems in the brain.
A new study provides evidence for how the frontal cortex exerts control over thought and action.
A new study explores the underlying neural processes at play when embarking in short term task learning.
Inhibitory neurons form neural networks that become broader as they mature, a new study reports.
According to a new study, adolescence may be a crucial period for remodeling of the human brain.
Adaptive brain networking following injury can have long term implications for brain health, a new study reports.
A new study places the appearance of modern humanlike cognition at the emergence of Homo erectus 1.8 million years ago, 600,000 years before the appearance of Neanderthals.
