Study reveals functional connectivity abnormalities in brain areas associated with reward processing, habit formation, and decision-making in those with substance use disorders and addiction.
Numerous studies have found dancing can help promote improved mental health and overall wellbeing, regardless of a person's age. Researchers explore why some people are "born to dance".
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.
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.
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.
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.
A new study reports both planned and spontaneous movements have the same neural activity during the action, but the preceding brain activity differs.
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.
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.
Stopping a planned behavior requires a complex and rapid choreography between a number of different brain areas, JHU researchers report.
Musical training may enhance the ability to process speech in noisy settings, a new study reveals.
Researchers link physical fitness in children to increased gray matter volume in areas of the brain implicated in language processing and reading skills.
