The brain’s hemispheres are specialized for efficiency. Modern neuroscience shows lateralization enhances function without ...

Modern neuroscience understands the brain as a set of specialized systems. Aspects of brain function such as attention, ...

For decades, researchers have attempted to pinpoint the specific areas of the brain responsible for human intelligence. A new ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

The human brain contains billions of connected neurons that collectively support different mental functions, including the ...

Neuromorphic computing, inspired by the brain, integrates memory and processing to drastically reduce power consumption compared to traditional CPUs and GPUs, making AI at the network edge more ...

To navigate something as complex and dynamic as the brain, a map would help. Researchers have learned an enormous amount about how we think, what drives our behaviors, and why we feel the way we do ...

Brain microphysiological systems are reshaping in vitro neurotoxicity testing through functional validation and advanced ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain ...

Now why would someone throw paint all over a perfectly good human brain? The good news is that this isn’t a paint splattered brain, but the colors are meaningful. This is a functional magnetic ...

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, on Thursday unveiled the Functional Repair of Neocortical Tissue (FRONT) ...
