Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things happen. But how it processes what you see—like objects or images—has been a ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

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 ...

Researchers mapped the brain connectivity of 960 individuals to uncover how fast and slow neural processes unite to support complex behavior.

The brain’s chatter has always been partly out of reach, with electrical spikes easy to record but the chemical whispers ...

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

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Scientists at the Carney Institute for Brain Science have discovered specific patterns of electrical signals in the brain that may help forecast whether a person will go on to develop Alzheimer’s ...

Your eyes might be the window to your future brain health, and what researchers are discovering could change how we detect Alzheimer’s disease forever. Long before memory problems become noticeable, ...
