An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain's ...

A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain's wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

Two projects — one that maps the function of the brain’s neuronal network in unprecedented detail and another that combines robotics and light-based computer circuits to create safe self-driving ...

The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

When most of us picture the brain, we imagine billions of nerve cells flashing with electrical activity, carrying thoughts, memories and commands from one region to another. Those cells, called ...

The brain's ability to adapt and form new neural connections allows it to recover from injury and maintain cognitive function into old age. Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to adapt and ...
