A significant number of people feel their thoughts take on the form of an inner voice, a new study reports. Read More
A new wireless intracortical brain-computer interface neuroprosthesis is capable of gathering and transmitting accurate neural signals, using a tenth of the power required by current wire-enabled systems. Read More
Researchers have discovered a brain-based marker for new thoughts, reporting people experience more than 6,000 thoughts per day. The study reports a new method that can detect indirectly when one thought ends and another begins. Read More
Just like humans, mice fidget more while deep in thought. Read More
Having identified a new, simpler way to study neural activity, researchers believe they are on track to creating a compact, low power and potentially wireless brain sensor that could make thought-controlled prosthetic limbs ubiquitous. Read More
Problems with counterfactive interpretation in those with aphasia are associated with a reduction of propositional, lexical and syntactic cognition. Read More
Researchers propose a new theory of human thinking, suggesting our brain's navigation system is key to thinking. This may explain why our knowledge seems to be organized in spatial fashion. Read More
UC Berkeley researchers report the prefrontal cortex coordinates activity in order to help us act in response to perception. Read More
Researchers report distractions can detract from the experience of beauty, and sensuous pleasures can also be beautiful. Read More
A new approach may lead to a better understanding of how we learn and how addictions develop. Read More
A new study considers how thoughts take shape in the brain. Read More
A new study provides evidence for how the frontal cortex exerts control over thought and action. Read More
