Study identifies neurons in command of guiding adaptive behaviors.
Researchers decipher the pathways by which the brain alters its own perception of the outside world.
A new study reports activity, not rest, help speed up recovery following a brain injury.
Researchers have successfully mapped brain networks that are responsible for perception and movements linked to touch. The findings may provide new insights into the connection between movement and touch.
Researchers have successfully induced the sensations of touch and movement in the arm of a paralyzed man, with the help of a tiny array of electrodes implanted into the somatosensory cortex.
Following targeted motor and sensory reinnervation, a procedure that reroutes residual limb nerves to intact muscles and skin in amputees, the brain remaps both motor and sensory pathways. Additionally, researchers note, TMSR may help counteract poorly adapted cortical plasticity following amputation.
A new study reveals the neurological mechanisms at work during ketamine anesthesia.
