In this neural-circuit model, which incorporates what we know about the organization and neurophysiology of the cortex, lower-level neural circuits send information about visual stimuli to a ...

Intensive analysis of these neural circuits, particularly those controlling the muscles in the leg swing phase, unveiled critical elements of energy-saving walking strategies.

A new mathematical model sheds light on how the brain processes different cues, such as sights and sounds, during decision making. The findings from Princeton neuroscientists may one day improve ...

To map out this circuit, the research teams of Zlatic and Albert Cardona used a three-pronged approach that incorporated iterative rounds of behavioral testing, genetic screens to identify neurons ...

New research suggests that it could be possible to separate treatment from hallucinations when developing new drugs based on psychedelics. The anti-anxiety andhallucination-inducing qualities of ...

To test their hypothesis, Langdon and Engel first applied their new model to recurrent neural networks trained to perform a context-dependent decision-making task. The task, performed by humans ...
