Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...

Scientists have developed the largest and most detailed computational models of rat hippocampal and somatosensory cortex regions to date. They have released these models and the tools for their use to ...

Mental illness is often described in abstract terms, but is rooted in the brain. A study reveals that genes influencing ...

Optogenetic climbing fiber activation regulates experience-dependent plasticity in the primary somatosensory cortex of mice, suggesting a role of the olivo-cerebellum in instructive signaling across ...

This public domain/Wikimedia Commons image of monitors working in the security operations center at the University of Maryland illustrates a challenge of visual working memory: keeping track of what ...

Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

National Institutes of Health researchers have mapped how individual neurons in the primary somatosensory cortex receive brain-wide presynaptic inputs that encode behavioral states, refining our ...

Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds, behavior and internal states shape vision. The new ...

Despite assumptions about education's positive influence on brain structure, new findings suggest that even an additional year of schooling doesn't leave a lasting neural footprint. Study: No effect ...
