A new MIT study finds that somatostatin-expressing neurons follow a unique trajectory when forming connections in the brain’s ...

Whether we're staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

In a major leap for neuroscience, researchers have created the first functional connectome of the mouse visual cortex at cubic millimeter scale, linking neural activity to synaptic wiring across an ...

Researchers at Neuro-Electronics Research Flanders (NERF), led by Prof. Vincent Bonin, have published two new studies uncovering how visual information is processed and distributed in the brain. The ...

Imagine a ball bouncing down a flight of stairs. Now think about a cascade of water flowing down those same stairs. The ball and the water behave very differently, and it turns out that your brain has ...

Let a mouse nose around a house, and it will rapidly find food and form a strategy to return to it without getting caught. Given the same task, an AI would require millions of training examples and ...

The human brain is often compared to a computer, but the latest wave of research shows it is closer to a self-building city, ...
