Are the same technologies that promise to make us smarter making us less capable of the mental work that builds understanding ...
In the split second that is needed to view a stop sign and react to it, our brain navigates a complex process that transitions seamlessly from perception to action control. This ability to halt or ...
Twelve laboratories around the world have joined forces to map neuronal activity in a mouse’s brain as it makes decisions.
Our brains have an extraordinary ability to adapt and learn, a process known as neuroplasticity. From navigating a new city to mastering a new skill, neuroplasticity allows us to reshape our neural ...
Have you ever gotten a flash of a different route you could have taken while stuck in traffic? This isn't just a fleeting ...
It has been unclear how to build simulations of entire neural circuits with only measurements from a dead fly’s brain. Using machine learning to combine a wiring diagram with knowledge of the ...
Research has found that reading consistently can improve memory, reduce stress, and may even be linked to a longer lifespan.
