Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

How does the brain manage to catch the drift of a mumbled sentence or a flat, robotic voice? A new study led by researchers at Reichman University's Baruch Ivcher School of Psychology and the Dina ...

When a baby smiles at you, it's almost impossible not to smile back. This spontaneous reaction to a facial expression is part ...

Human brains still react to chimp voices, hinting at a deep evolutionary link in how we recognize sound.

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

Dr. Maria Margarita Behrens traces her journey from South America to the Salk Institute in a Genomic Press Interview ...

This important study combines optogenetic manipulations and wide-field imaging to show that the retrosplenial cortex controls behavioral responses to whisker deflection in a context-dependent manner.

Coordinated eye-body movements are essential for adaptive behavior, yet little is known about how multisensory input, particularly chemosensory cues, shapes this coordination. Using our enhanced ...
