Researchers have identified a population of neurons in the auditory cortex that responds to singing, but not any other type of music.
Researchers have identified a region of the thalamus that helps us switch between appropriate behavior required for different contexts.
Researchers have developed a new computational model that could help shed light on the role of inhibitory neurons.
Researchers have designed antibody-like receptor proteins that can bind to cytokines, possibly reducing the effects of the COVID-19 associated cytokine storm.
A new AI system may shed light on how and when humans begins to use different information processing resources.
Researchers have developed a new probe that can induce blood flow changes that allows for neuroimaging without the use of radioactive labels.
Researchers shed light on the role the caudate nucleus plays in pessimism. The study reports stimulating this area of the brain generates a negative outlook that clouds decision making.
MIT researchers have identified a neural network that can stretch or compress its activity in order to generate a an action at a specific time.
Researchers report a complex series of other molecular, cellular, circuit and network-level changes contribute to the progression of Alzheimer's disease.
Imaging and manipulating engrams at the cellular level provides important insights into memory function.
Mapping the thalamic reticular nucleus, researchers have identified two distinct subnetworks of neurons with different functions. Findings offer insight into more specific targets for therapeutics to alleviate some sensory, sleep, and attention symptoms associated with ASD and other disorders characterized by sensory hypersensitivity.
A new NIH funded study will use C. elegans to discover the secrets behind serotonin's influence on behavior.
