In a new study, researchers discovered that the human brain has four pivotal periods when it goes through marked changes, sparking five "epochs" that last for years. The adolescent phase, for example, ...

A computer model developed by researchers from Japan and Seattle's Allen Institute could lead to new methods for studying ...

How a brain's anatomical structure relates to its function is one of the most important questions in neuroscience. It explores how physical components, such as neurons and their connections, give rise ...

The posterior cingulate cortex and the thalamus showed decreased participation in whole-brain connectivity (magenta), while the right angular gyrus exhibited increased participation in whole-brain ...

The same brain cells linked to disorientation in Alzheimer's disease have been preserved—and even slightly increased—across ...

Despite widespread skepticism, the National Science Foundation and DARPA have invested millions of dollars in organoid-based ...

Researchers have developed a technique to connect lab-grown neural 'organoids' (three-dimensional developmental brain-like structures grown from human stem cells) using axonal bundles, similar to the ...

Think your brain changes slowly? A new study reveals four dramatic turning points that completely reset how your mind works ...

EPFL researchers have discovered key "units" in large AI models that seem to be important for language, mirroring the brain's language system. When these specific units were turned off, the models got ...

Machines have come a long way in seeing and understanding images, but they still don’t see quite like humans do. A new development in artificial intelligence (AI), however, may bring us closer to that ...
