A first-of-its-kind brain map shows decision-making signals spread across 95% of the brain, reshaping neuroscience research.

A huge project led by neuroscientists from all across the world has achieved world-first insight into what decision-making looks like in the brain. It marks the first time a single-cell, ...

The first complete activity map of the brain has been unveiled by a large international collaboration of neuroscientists. The ...

The first complete activity map of the brain has been unveiled by a large international collaboration of neuroscientists.

Scientists have mapped the activity that takes place across a mouse's entire brain as it decides how to complete a task - and ...

Brain wiring is guided by activity even in very early development Date: August 15, 2024 Source: Yale University Summary: In humans, the process of learning is driven by different groups of cells ...

Physical activity was rated as light, moderate or vigorous. Experts found that all levels of physical activity, from doing chores to going for a brisk run, were good for brain function.

“We recorded the brain activity of a rat familiar with a certain maze or trajectory, as it watched another rat run the same maze, receiving rewards at different points. We found that the brain ...

Typically, researchers pool a bunch of brain scans to figure out the average way brains handle certain tasks. Instead, could they pick out individual brain profiles from a stack of 126 people’s ...

Even moderate physical activity has a positive effect on the brain. Researchers deduce this from examinations of 2,550 participants of the Bonn 'Rhineland Study'. According to the study's findings ...

Excess neural activity in the brain may be associated with a shorter lifespan, according to a study published in Nature.

Yale researchers uncover how brain cells form precise circuits before experience is able to shape wiring.
