A team of researchers at UCL and UCLH have identified the key brain regions that are essential for logical thinking and problem solving.

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're ...

From a cubic millimeter of brain tissue, scientists have constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing 84,000 neurons and more than 500 million synapses.

Scientists say the map of a speck of a mouse's brain could be as transformative as the Human Genome Project. Here's what to ...

Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a ...

A new study reveals that the basolateral amygdala (BLA) plays a key role in calibrating prosocial behavior based on emotional ...

The Victorian paleontologist Richard Owen incorrectly argued that the human brain was the only brain to contain a small area termed the Hippocampus minor. He claimed that made it unique in the animal ...

“It’s that the human brain must be working differently. It is just the fact that in the chimpanzee brain, you will have a visual stimulus going all the way from visual processing areas into ...

Learning happens in the sensory cortex, an area believed to only process sensory input "Looking at a tiny part of the brain in a mouse, we can understand how the brain learns, and we can make ...

A new paper in Engineering titled “Machine Memory Intelligence: Inspired by Human Memory Mechanisms” presents an approach to ...

In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then overlayed their firing patterns in ...
