Researchers use neuroimaging techniques to reveal the true identities of the brains of Carl Friedrich Gauss and Conrad Heinrich Fuchs. The brains were incorrectly labelled over 150 years ago.
Researchers develop a new method that utilizes lasers, which they hope will help decode complex neural circuits.
Researchers report estrogen may play a significant role in synaptic plasticity and memory formation. The study reports mice whose neurons did not produce estrogen have impairments in spatial reference memories, recognition and contextual fear memories. Restoring estrogen levels assisted in reversing the memory impairments, the study revealed.
Researchers have developed new software that speeds up connectome analysis by up-to ten times.
Researchers discover both the structure of specific brain areas and memory are linked to genetic activity that also play important roles in immune system function.
Brain structure and mood improve when people spend time outdoors. This has positive implications for concentration, memory, and overall psychological wellbeing.
A neural pathway that leads directly from the thalamus to the hypothalamus plays a critical role in processing touch information, a new study reveals.
Researchers explain why iodine deficiency during pregnancy can adversely affect brain development in the unborn child.
Facial temperature, specifically the temperature above the sinuses, rises as cognitive demands increase, researchers report.
Researchers perform cluster analysis if cat neural network models and reveal promising anti-seizure strategies.
A study of the cerebral cortex discovered there is a robust response to sound during sleep that largely mirrored the brain's response during wakefulness. However, differences in brain waves that help the brain understand sound and anticipate what comes next is missing during sleep.
Researchers help children control their emotions with the help of neurofeedback.
