A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs ...

Princeton scientists found that the brain uses reusable “cognitive blocks” to create new behaviors quickly.

This protective layer allows signals to pass between cells incredibly quickly. But what happens when this layer goes missing ...

The cerebellum (which is Latin for ‘little brain’) is the area of the brain in charge of fine motor coordination and balance, and it keeps our movements smooth and stable by predicting what our next ...

How do wounded soldiers power through to achieve feats of heroism? Understanding how the brain works is a key to avoid losing wars.

We conclude that brain states are shaped by local circuit mechanisms, large-scale connectivity and neuromodulation. A unified multiscale theory of cortical dynamics is relevant not only for ...
