A collaborative team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh designed a clever experiment using a brain-controlled interface to determine whether one-way ...

Neural network models that are able to make decisions or store memories have long captured scientists' imaginations. In these ...

Persistent alteration of neuronal activity in a specialized thalamic nucleus underlies maladaptive behavioral changes after ...

How might pareidolia — seeing faces in nature or hearing distinct sounds emerge from ambient noise — benefit our creativity, ...

When you think about moving your fingers, neurons (brain cells) in the motor cortex (the brain’s movement control center) ...

Thermal sensations are consciously differentiated as hot or cold by the brain; however, the neural mechanism that enables this differentiation is not well understood. To address this, researchers have ...

Researchers developed a novel method combining hydrogel-coated microfluidic devices with high-density microelectrode arrays ...

A man with paralysis has been able to fly a virtual drone using only his thoughts. The feat was made possible by a ...

Collaboration and cooperation are key elements of human social interactions, which can contribute to the efficient ...

Scientists in the US have developed a neural interface that enables an individual with paralysis to control a virtual ...

This study uses all-optical electrophysiology methods to provide a valuable insight into the organization of cortical networks and their ability to balance the activity of groups of neurons with ...
