A new study offers insight into how a well-connected core brain network in the lateral prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex, help coordinate the brain’s response to novel cognitive challenges.
Researchers have carried out the largest general neural network simulation to date using the computational power of the K computer.
A new study provides insights into the neural origins of hot flashes associated with menopause.
Whole brain neuroimaging study reveals the neural networks involved in retrieving long-term memories during decision making.
Extroverts brain's release more dopamine, giving them more reason to be excited and engaged in the world, a new study suggests.
Using an innovative brain-tracing technique, researchers discover a way to 'untangle' neural networks. The findings offer insight into how specific brain regions are connected.
Researchers are using memristors, electronic microcomponents which imitate natural nerves, as key components to create a blueprint for an artificial brain.
Models of the human brain, patterned on engineering control theory, could assist researchers control neurological diseases, according researcher who is using mathematical models of neuron networks from which more complex brain models emerge.
By simulating patterns of microvasculature cell growth and compare the results with real networks grown in lab, researchers hope to direct how they grow into the tiny blood vessels that feed the brain and help people regain functions lost to stroke and disease.
Simulating 25,000 generations of evolution within computers, researchers discover why biological networks tend to be organized as modules, a finding that will lead to a deeper understanding of the evolution of complexity.
Working with patients with electrodes implanted in their brains, researchers show that areas of the brain work simultaneously to recall memories. The approach promises new insights into how we remember details of time and place.
Using several neuroimaging methods, a team of researchers working at the University of Western Ontario have now uncovered that functional changes within a key brain network occur directly after a 30-minute session of noninvasive, neural-based training.
