Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

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?

Understanding brain structure is a central challenge in neuroscience. Although brain structure changes throughout life and is linked to both aging and neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's ...

Steven Weisberg, a researcher at the University of Texas at Arlington, found that advanced artificial intelligence tools could not uncover a clear link between brain structure and navigation ability ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

New research indicates that the structural organization of the human brain does not develop in a continuous, linear fashion but rather progresses through five distinct phases separated by specific ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be game-changing for treating diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

The default mode network (DMN) is a set of interconnected brain regions known to be most active when humans are awake but not engaged in physical activities, such as relaxing, resting or daydreaming.

Brain volume and function are altered in individuals with opioid use disorder, a new Yale study finds. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI), researchers observed the ...
