Researchers examined anatomy of neurons from humans, mice and fruit flies. They discovered that the cellular structure of the brain is at a critical point, poised between two phases. New insights ...

The study shows that parts of the brain area that control movement are plugged into networks involved in thinking and planning, and in control of involuntary bodily functions such as blood pressure ...

In a new article appearing in the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, led by Cory Shain and Hope Kean, explore how the human brain shows ...

A recurrent neural network structure exists in the most important part of the brain -- the frontal cortex -- and this network is less complex than has been thought and mostly unidirectional, new ...

An artificial intelligence computer program that processes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can accurately identify changes in brain structure that result from repeated head injury, a new study in ...
