A new study has identified the brain connectivity patterns that lead to cognitive difficulties in patients with schizophrenia, suggesting potential targets for therapeutic intervention in early ...

Creativity is more than just a spark. New brain scan studies reveal the complicated interplay between multiple brain systems.

MIT scientists found that what we see is strongly influenced by how alert or active we are. Parts of the brain responsible for planning and control send specialized signals that either boost or quiet ...

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 ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...

Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds, behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published Nov. 25 in Neuron, finds in mice that via specific circuits, ...

Summary: New research shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t simply broadcast generic commands to sensory regions—it sends finely tailored signals that shape how the brain processes vision depending ...

Introduction: Preliminary data suggest that patients with takotsubo syndrome (TTS) have altered activation of stress-related brain regions. The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) plays a central role in ...

ABSTRACT: Background: To delay the onset of dementia with age, it is important for healthy adults to take preventive measures before cognitive decline occurs. Cognitive function decline is often ...

In a study published in Cell on July 10, a team from the Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology (CEBSIT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with a team from the HUST ...
