Facial expression control starts in a very old part of the nervous system. In the brain stem sits the facial nucleus, which ...

Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...

UCLA researchers have made a significant discovery showing that biological brains and artificial intelligence systems develop remarkably similar neural patterns during social interaction. This ...

A new study sheds new light on these big questions, illuminating a general principle of neural processing in a mysterious region of the midbrain that is the very origin of our central serotonin (5-HT) ...

Neuroscientists have set up computer frameworks that can help model individual brain dynamics. The complexity of the human brain -- 86 billion neurons strong with more than 100 trillion connections -- ...

When a baby smiles at you, it's almost impossible not to smile back. This spontaneous reaction to a facial expression is part ...

Neuroscience continually strives to unravel the intricate relationship between neural network morphology, spiking dynamics, and their resulting functional ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...
