Researchers have traced the neural connections that help us to curb our impulses.
Researchers believe they may have pinpointed an area of the brain that plays a role in maintaining human consciousness.
Researchers introduce a new concept of how the brain is involved in respiration.
Researchers have identified a population of neurons in the brainstem which are essential for mice to stop their locomotion.
Researchers identify 'sleep node' in the mammalian brain. Its activity appears to be necessary and sufficient to produce deep sleep.
Neuroscientists have believed that three brain regions are critical for self-awareness: the insular cortex, the anterior cingulate cortex, and the medial prefrontal cortex. Patient R is helping a research team show that self-awareness is more a product of a diffuse patchwork of pathways in the brain—including other regions—rather than confined to specific areas.
