Researchers introduce Cheese3D, an AI tool that tracks mouse facial expressions to predict brain states and anesthesia depth with EEG accuracy.

For decades, neuroscientists have been trying to uncover the neural processes that allow humans and various other animals to ...

Eating a combination of two award-winning diets slowed aging in key structures inside the brain by over two years, according to a new study. While all three diets are plant-based and quite similar, ...

Have you ever felt calmer almost as soon as you step into the woods? Or maybe noticed your busy mind soften as you look out at the sea? We have known for some time, and many of us sense it intuitively ...

In a world first, China has approved a brain implant for commercial use in people with spinal cord injuries. The device is a type of brain-computer interface (BCI) and is made by the Shanghai-based ...

Well, for one thing, one study showed that if you take ballroom dance classes and continue for a year, parts of the brain that are important for coordination and planning increase and the size of the ...

An important milestone has been achieved in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. A new peer-reviewed study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering shows how a high-performance brain-computer ...

The Grinch is one of the holiday season’s most familiar icons. The grumpy, green, fur-covered misanthrope who plotted to sabotage Christmas in Dr Seuss’s classic 1957 work has now become a ...

Is language core to thought, or a separate process? For 15 years, the neuroscientist Ev Fedorenko has gathered evidence of a language network in the human brain — and has found some similarities to ...

Flight is a rare skill in the animal world. Among vertebrates, it evolved only three times: in bats, birds, and the long-extinct pterosaurs. Pterosaurs were the pioneers, taking to the skies more than ...

A new study finds that brain changes are not a steady progression; instead, distinct neural rewiring occurs around ages 9, 32, 66, and 83. A new study of brain MRIs has pinpointed four major turning ...

It used to be thought that sea urchins only had a primitive nervous system, but new research has found that they are far more complex than that. The entire body of a sea urchin is what researchers are ...
