As sure as the brain is prone to distraction, it can also return its focus to the task at hand. A new study in animals by ...

Standard laboratory tests can fail to detect many disease-causing DNA changes. Now, a novel 3D chromosome mapping method can ...

For decades, scientists have tried to build electronics that behave like the brain. The idea is called neuromorphic computing in which chips are designed to copy the way our brain’s neurons fire and ...

The brain-computer interface developer Precision Neuroscience has put forward a study detailing the experiences of its first human patients—showing its minimally invasive approach is capable of both ...

If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

The curious minds at ColdFusion report on scientists who 3D printed a fully beating human heart. 18-year-old high school student shot, killed by ATF agent in Aliquippa Poll Deals Major Blow to Trump’s ...

Neuroscientists from around the world have worked in parallel to map, for the first time, the entire brain activity of mice while they were making decisions. This achievement involved using electrodes ...

Neuroscientists from 22 labs joined forces in an unprecedented international partnership to produce a landmark achievement: a neural map that shows activity across the entire brain during ...

Julia Chapman has received funding from the Amercian Academy of Sleep Medicine Foundation, NHMRC Centre of Research Excellence, CogSleep, Woolcock Institute's Centre for Chronic Diseases of Ageing.

Mice moving tiny steering wheels to control shapes on a screen have given scientists an unprecedented view of how decisions unfold across the brain. For the first time, researchers have mapped ...

Mice turning tiny steering wheels to move shapes on a screen have helped scientists produce the first brain-wide map of decision-making at single-cell resolution in a mammal. For decades, most ...
