As we move through everyday life, our brains engage in a huge variety of cognitive tasks. For example, during a grocery run, ...

Every day, your brain makes thousands of decisions under uncertainty. Most of the time, you guess right. When you don't, you learn. But when the brain's ability to judge context or assign meaning ...

Over the past decades, neuroscience studies have painted an increasingly detailed picture of the human brain, its organization and how it supports various functions. To plan and execute desired ...

Researchers have built AI systems capable of steering targeted brain circuits in real time, moving neuroscience closer to precise, closed-loop control of neural activity. These tools pair machine ...

New research in mice from scientists at New York University Langone Health (NYU Langone Health) and their colleagues elsewhere identifies brain circuits that make memories more stable during learning.

Broken or disrupted circuits in the brain contribute to many neurological disorders. A new custom-built biological “wire” developed at Duke University School of Medicine points the way toward a new ...
