For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope.

Researchers have developed the first activity-based maps of the prefrontal cortex, challenging traditional descriptions of ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds, behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published Nov. 25 in Neuron, finds in mice that via specific circuits, ...

Multi area RNN models fitted to in-vivo cortical activity predict behavioral changes induced by optogenetic perturbations, if biologically informed connectivity constraints on the optogenetically ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.
