Your brain’s decision-making cortex finishes wiring only in your mid-twenties
Researchers examining postmortem human brains have found that the prefrontal cortex, the region responsible for planning, ...
This study aimed to investigate the functionality of the prefrontal cortex in patients with unipolar depression (UD) and bipolar depression (BD) using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) ...
Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...
New research reveals a mental workaround that is activated through repetition and experience.
A circuit that runs from the prefrontal cortex near the front of the brain to a deeper brain structure called the insular ...
Reduced prefrontal cortex and sympathetic nervous system activity correlate with fatigue after aHSCT
Long-term fatigue and cognitive dysfunction affects 35% of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) survivors, suggesting a dysfunctional prefrontal cortex. In this study, we ...
New research by Georgetown scientists shows how the brain rewires itself to automate learned tasks. The findings challenge a long-held understanding of how humans master complex skills, suggesting ...
