A new study by neuroscientists shows that our brain deals with different forms of visual uncertainty during movements in distinct ways. Depending on the type of uncertainty, planning and execution of ...
Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new study in mice. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that ...
Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...
Using powerful 7-Tesla brain imaging, researchers mapped how the brainstem manages pain differently across the body. They discovered that distinct regions activate for facial versus limb pain, showing ...
Scientists have built a working simulation of an entire adult fruit fly brain and connected it to a physics-based virtual body, producing what amounts to a digital insect that can process sensory ...
Network control theory (NCT) has recently been utilized in neuroscience to facilitate our understanding of brain stimulation effects and explore optimal paradigms. This paper considers stochastic ...
Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...
We used to think that the only role of the immune system was to protect the body from pathogens, cancer and damage. It is now clear that the immune system also functions to control tissue development, ...
