For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?

When you get better at a skill-recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game-sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...

A team of neuroscientists investigates communication pathways in the brain and predicts intelligence. A new study approach uses machine learning to improve our conceptual understanding of intelligence ...

Johns Hopkins scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and artificial intelligence (AI) programs to construct new maps of mouse brains showing a precise location of more than 10 ...

The team pinpointed the exact moment mice learned a new skill by observing the activity of individual neurons, confirming earlier work that suggested animals are fast learners that purposely test the ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have grown a novel whole-brain organoid, complete with neural tissues and rudimentary blood vessels—an advance that could usher in a new era of research into ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Brain organoids are usually grown to mirror individual sections of the brain, and not the entire organ. Biomedical engineers have ...

In recent years, breakthroughs in imaging have changed our ability to study the brain, providing a variety of modalities with varying resolution, penetration, and sensitivity. In neuropharmacology, ...

Researchers from Virginia Tech and Arizona State University recently revealed findings that tie two brain chemicals in bees to learning ability.

For decades, the idea that creativity comes from the right side of the brain has dominated popular culture. People have been told they're either "right-brained" (creative, intuitive) or "left-brained" ...
