Combining neuroimaging data with artificial intelligence technology, researchers have identified a complex network within the brain that comprehends the meaning of spoken sentences. Read More
The brain exaggerates differences between similar events in order to encode them in memory. This results in divergent brain activity that allows for better memory performance. Read More
Study provides new insight into how brain waves control the flow of information through the cortex. Read More
The occipital cortex plays a causal role in piloting our attention to manage the intake of images. Read More
Testing self-referential bias in working memory, researchers report people automatically self prioritize. This may form the basis for egocentric bias when it comes to decision making. Read More
A new study reports both planned and spontaneous movements have the same neural activity during the action, but the preceding brain activity differs. Read More
A neuroimaging study reveals brain areas not commonly associated with science learning become active when people complete physics problems. Read More
A new study sheds light on how the brain tunes into relevant changes in natural sound to optimize behavior. Read More
A new neuroimaging study of war veterans with TBI reveals some interesting insights into brain areas associated with altruism. Read More
Researchers report individual differences in functional brain connectivity reflects differences in how certain intrinsic connectivity networks engage during decision making. Read More
Using the movie Memento, researchers discover how the brain creates memories to piece together complex story lines. Read More
