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

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.

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

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to ...

What the heart wants, the brain wants too. A nutrient-rich diet is crucial for heart, vascular and brain health, as about 25% of our blood supply goes to our brain. Eating foods high in saturated ...

Recent research published in Nature Metabolism reveals that the human brain consumes its own myelin when glucose levels drop significantly during strenuous physical activities like marathons.

The way neurons inside the human brain function and communicate is being used as a roadmap for creating new artificial systems. But more strikingly, scientists now are trying to merge human ...

“Understanding exactly when and how brain aging accelerates gives us strategic time points for intervention,” said Lilianne Mujica-Parodi, lead author of the study from Stony Brook University (SBU ...

To relate complex human brain dynamics to mitochondria, the spatial distribution of diverse, energy-transforming mitochondria must be mapped across the brain, which is a considerable technical ...

In the course of evolution, this interplay has led to the human brain being unique in its size and complexity. The newly gained insights not only provide a deeper understanding of the evolutionary ...
