Study reveals how dopamine may have a central role in maintaining our consciousness.
Focused ultrasound allowed researchers to record and monitor brain activity in a non-invasive way. The technology allowed the researchers to predict movement.
The posterior parietal cortex, an area of the brain implicated in spatial awareness, plays a critical role in visual decision making.
A new microscopy technique integrates existing and novel approaches to build a clearer picture of the workings of neurons in the brain. The technique captures cellular activity across large tissue volumes in greater detail than previous techniques have allowed for.
Researchers provide evidence that the posterior parietal cortex plays a vital role in converting vision into action.
Two new studies shed light on the processes that underlie the integration and storage of sensory information.
Coupling a non invasive brain computer interface with a virtual walking avatar may help those with gait disorders to regain control of their movements, a new study reports.
Researchers uncover how the posterior parietal cortex encodes and organizes information about body movement.
A new study published in Nature sheds light on how populations of neurons work together during working memory and decision making tasks. Researchers report individual neurons are briefly active, but populations of neurons working together carry information for longer periods of time by being active at different times.
Researchers report the posterior parietal cortex may be implicated in the movement of our hands.
A new study links risk aversion to changes in gray matter volume in the right posterior parietal cortex.
Researchers have discovered the area in the brain where stiffness perception is formed.
