The idea of “reading minds” has shifted from science fiction to a concrete engineering challenge, and the latest ...

Katherine Duncan doesn’t experience memory the way most people do. She can’t vividly relive the past or picture it in her ...

Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their ...

Researchers have engineered a next-generation glutamate sensor, iGluSnFR4, capable of detecting the faintest incoming ...

Researchers at USC have made a significant breakthrough in understanding how the human brain forms, stores and recalls visual memories. A new study, published in Advanced Science, harnesses human ...

The human brain and body are intricate systems that have been fine-tuned over millions of years to prioritize survival. One of the ways they achieve this is by favoring the status quo, or what is ...

Inside the Visual Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at ASU, researchers investigate how the brain turns sensory signals into meaningful perception. Led by Professor Gi-Yeul Bae at the Department of ...

Before a car crash in 2008 left her paralysed from the neck down, Nancy Smith enjoyed playing the piano. Years later, Smith started making music again, thanks to an implant that recorded and analysed ...

How the human brain organizes its visual memories through precise neural timing has been discovered. Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC; CA, USA) have made a significant ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers examine neural networks in the left language-dominant hemisphere responsible for semantic integration using intracranial recordings in ...

It is by now old news that scientists can read out aspects of your internal conscious experience by recording neural signals. But a new study of this kind involving music is still a remarkable ...

Some parts of the cerebral cortex thin with age but others remain stable or improve with time, an imaging study of mice and humans showed. (Nature Neuroscience) Prenatal exposure to chlorpyrifos -- ...
