Scientists at Baylor College of Medicine began by using specialized microscopes to record the brain activity from a one cubic millimeter portion of a mouse's visual cortex as the animal watched ...

In all, they collected data that covers about 3.4 miles (5.4 kilometers) of neuronal wiring in a part of the brain that processes visual information from the eyes.

In a ground breaking achievement, researchers from Harvard University and Google have created the most detailed wiring diagram of the human brain ever constructed. This remarkable project began ...

Jeff Lichtman, a professor in molecular and cellular biology at Harvard, explains that researchers in his lab, led by Alex Shapson-Coe, created the brain map by taking subcellular pictures of the ...

Riddle me this: how can it be that reading these words activates nearly identical word-sensitive patches of the brain’s visual system in you and nearly every other reader of this story? And that a ...

The human brain can learn through experience to filter out disturbing and distracting stimuli—such as a glaring roadside billboard or a flashing banner on the internet. Scientists at Leipzig ...
