How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

A new study into how different parts of memory work in the brain has shown that the same brain areas are involved in ...

A new brain imaging study reveals that remembering facts and recalling life events activate nearly identical brain networks.

A new study challenges the long-standing belief that episodic and semantic memory rely on distinct brain systems.

Two different regions of the brain are critical to integrating semantic information while reading, which could shed more light on why people with aphasia have difficulty with semantics, according to ...

Within the human brain, movement is coordinated by a brain region called the striatum, which sends instructions to motor neurons in the brain. Those instructions are conveyed by two pathways, one that ...

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 ...

Functional MRI data shows reduced activation in key brain regions post-nap in TBI patients, indicating enhanced motor learning, according to lead author Anthony H. Lequerica, PhD, senior research ...
