The striatum and premotor cortex show altered patterns in neural activity when encoding time. The dynamics of the striatum were more sequential than those of the premotor cortex. Read More
Neuroimaging pinpoints areas of the brain that regulate efforts to deal with fatigue. The study reveals the neural mechanisms that contribute to feelings of fatigue. Read More
Neural activity patterns for limb movements remain stable over time. Researchers were able to record, decode, and reconstruct activity patterns from common movement skills. The findings could have immediate implications for the development of neuroprosthetics that can bypass brain injuries by inferring intended motor actions from a person's brain. Read More
Researchers report the brain controls speech production in a similar manner to how it controls the production of arm and hand movements. The findings could help to build better speech decoders for BMI, helping those who are unable to speak to find their voice. 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
Stanford researchers have identified five new categories of specific symptoms and brain area activation that can be applied to the diagnosis of anxiety and depression in a more specific manner. Read More
University of Rochester researchers report low levels of electrical stimulation delivered to areas of the brain responsible for movement can instruct an appropriate response, replacing signals for sensory processing. Read More
Stopping a planned behavior requires a complex and rapid choreography between a number of different brain areas, JHU researchers report. Read More
Musical training may enhance the ability to process speech in noisy settings, a new study reveals. Read More
Researchers link physical fitness in children to increased gray matter volume in areas of the brain implicated in language processing and reading skills. Read More
A new study investigates how the a specific brain network tracks the location and speed of an object, helping animals to prepare for imminent impact. Read More
In a study exploring the neural correlates of the fight or flight response, people who choose to flee perceive a greater threat, leading them to behaviorally and mentally disengage from a situation, researchers report. Read More
