05.09.2022 How the brain focuses on what’s in mind
When holding information in mind, neural activity is more focused when and where there are bursts of gamma frequency rhythms
31.08.2022 How the brain generates rhythmic behavior
MIT neuroscientists have identified an oscillatory circuit that controls the rhythmic movement of mouse whiskers
15.08.2022 EBRAINS Brain Atlas enables researchers to gain a deeper understanding of brain organization
The study demonstrates a method to unravel structure-function relationships by using the multilevel Julich-Brain Atlas on EBRAINS to bridge the different scales of brain organisation. The findings provide insight into the visual, auditory, somatosensory, and motor systems of the brain
11.08.2022 The brain processes behind pattern recognition
Human brains learn patterns over time and we don’t even realize it. New insight into how this works could improve learning and other cognitive processes
23.05.2022 A Relativistic Theory of Consciousness
Consciousness can not simply be reduced to neural activity alone. A novel study reports the dynamics of consciousness may be understood by a newly developed conceptual and mathematical framework.
05.01.2022 New method spotlights synaptic plasticity in living mice
Using a new line of mice that express a synaptic membrane receptor with a fluorescent tag, researchers have tracked changes in the strength of synapses across the brain over several days
