Researchers trace spontaneous genetic mutations and reverse-engineer the outlines of disrupted prenatal gene networks in schizophrenia.
Our brains could process new situations by relying on a method similar to a "pointer" system used by computers, new research suggests.
A new neuroimaging study supports Darwin's belief that intellectual excellence is down to practice rather than inherent ability.
Researchers find the differences in primate brains can be explained as a consequence of the same genetic program.
Researchers have observed the neural activity which appears to produce the disordered thinking associated with schizophrenia.
Playing video games causes increases in brain regions responsible for memory formation and strategic planning, researchers have discovered. The findings could prove relevant in developing new therapeutic interventions for psychiatric illnesses.
Researchers discover how the brain sorts out relevant and irrelevant sensory information during decision making processes.
Researchers discover abnormalities in cortical projection neurons during the development of the prefrontal cortex are a significant factor in the emergence of autism.
A new study highlights the value of paternal influence in both neurobiology and behavior.
Researchers isolate a gene responsible for dopamine connectivity in the medial prefrontal cortex during adolescence.
The brain uses similar circuits involved in planning motion when selecting tasks from working memory, new research reports.
Researchers find a gene variant which could cause some people to be more impaired by TBI than others.
