A new study has found that any alteration to specific creative circuits in the brain can release a spur of creativity. While ...

Scientists found that evolution led bird and mammal brains to evolve separately, using different genetic instructions.

The study, published in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Network Open, first looked at brain scans of ...

Heidelberg researchers map the responsible brain regions and gain new insights into their development and evolution The brains of birds and mammals have diverged substantially during the course of ...

Harvard researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...

A new study led by researchers at Mass General Brigham suggests that different brain regions activated by creative tasks are part of one common brain circuit.

Researchers have systematically detailed, step by step, how cognitive maps form in the brain's hippocampus -- a region responsible for learning and memory.

However, the study provides limited new insights into the relationship between retinal lamination defects and overall retinal function. Neural lamination is a common feature of the central nervous ...

In a nutshell Scientists discovered that the brain cells (POMC neurons) responsible for making us feel full are ...

Three studies of the brain regions responsible for processing sensory information show that their neurons are and communicate ...
