Researchers look deeper look at the impact of associative learning, especially when it comes to the current political climate.
A new study reports on the role dopamine plays in decision making.
Researchers discover odors prompt neural activity in locust's brains which allowed them to correctly identify the stimulus, even when other odors are present.
New research identifies a pair of neurons which control the feeding behavior in Drosophila fruit flies. The discovery could help scientists better understand how the brain uses stimuli and memory to produce classically conditioned responses.
