A new Scientific Reports study links structural changes in the teenage brain to behavioral changes when it comes to understanding the intention of others. Read More
By looking at how the brain responds to video clips, researchers are able to determine who your friends may be, a new study reveals. Read More
A new study reports males are more likely to attribute anxiety amongst women in STEM classes to being ill prepared for study, while women attribute anxiety to external factors, including gender bias and negative stereotyping. Read More
Researchers report the temporoparietal junction and medial prefrontal cortex experience increased connectivity during rest following encoding new social information. Read More
Researchers report developmental prosopagnosia, or face blindness, occurs as the results of neurobiological problems that broadly affect visual recognition. Read More
Researchers report facial recognition varies by where they appear in the visual field, and this variability is reduces through learning familiar faces via social interactions. The study reports repeated social interactions tune visual neurons in the face processing network to enable consistent and rapid rapid recognition of familiar faces. Read More
A neuroimaging study reveals seeing images of food with calorie information alters the way the brain responds to the food, making the item seem less appealing. Read More
Study reports past problems with vaccine research can cause hysteresis, or a negative history that stiffens the resolve of some against vaccinations. The findings shed light on why it is hard to improve vaccine uptake, even when there is overwhelming evidence of the safety and benefits of vaccinations. Read More
