Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...
Researchers are training neural networks to make decisions more like humans would. This science of human decision-making is only just being applied to machine learning, but developing a neural network ...
A University of Houston psychology professor is challenging the notion that dyslexia, or specific reading disorder, stems ...
New research suggests that the electrical complexity of the brain diminishes in early Alzheimer’s disease, potentially signaling a breakdown in the neural networks that support conscious awareness. By ...
New research published in Scientific Reports provides evidence that the path from genetic predisposition to general ...
How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...
Why do we sometimes keep eating even when we're full and other times turn down food completely? Why do we crave salty things ...
In 1943, a pair of neuroscientists were trying to describe how the human nervous system works when they accidentally laid the foundation for artificial intelligence. In their mathematical framework ...
