A consortium of researchers has produced the largest and most advanced multidimensional maps of gene regulation networks in the brains of people with and without mental disorders. These maps detail ...

For the first time, scientists have mapped how nearly an entire mammalian brain lights up as decisions are made. The massive ...

To shed new light on the contribution of different brain regions and neural circuits to specific mental functions, ...

A new way of mapping activity and connections between different regions of the brain has revealed fresh insights into how higher order functions like language, thought and attention, are organised.

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...

A study in newborn chicks shows that brain lateralisation is essential for the development of a left-to-right mental number line.

A special MRI technique, quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), can detect brain iron build-up and predict future ...

Lateralization of the brain—the tendency for the left and right hemispheres to specialize in different functions—underlies ...

Scientists traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord to control motor function. Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ...
