Think your cerebellum only coordinates fluid movements? New 2026 research reveals how your "little brain" also creates the ...

Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...

How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

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

New research suggests intelligence arises not from a single brain region, but from how networks across the brain work together as an integrated system. Neuroscientists often describe the brain as a ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

Studies of brain injuries and electrical stimulation seemed to bear this out. Damaging the Broca’s area, for instance, interfered with speech, and stimulating specific tissues could lead to specific ...

Scientists found our brain may organize behavior by activity patterns rather than fixed regions, reshaping how brain control ...

Picture a mammal that can deliberately shut down most of its brain functions for most of the year, then wake up in the spring with its memories and in.

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their behavior.

A new study suggests that the impact of obesity on brain health depends not just on how much fat the body carries, but where ...

Findings from the Living Brain Project reveal how senescence processes involved in early brain development may also shape brain aging ...
