Researchers at FORTH have developed a new type of artificial neural network (ANN) that incorporates features of biological ...

Scientists have pinpointed a brain circuit that, when activated, reduces anxiety without impairing memory. Using ...

such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), involve the electrical stimulation of specific brain regions via a pulse generator. DBS uniquely manipulates neuronal circuits to induce progressive plasticity ...

The brain interprets these sensory cues to understand what’s going on outside and inside the body. This allows a person to use their body to interact with their surrounding environment and ...

When a child develops a brain tumor, early diagnosis is essential. Alan Cohen, M.D., director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, shares the most common signs and symptoms ...

Parasitic infections can invade practically any part of the body. Brain parasites, those that infect the central nervous system which includes the brain, are potentially the most damaging and the most ...

"This model is a first-draft model of the entorhinal-hippocampal episodic memory circuit. It's a foundation to build on to understand the nature of episodic memory. That's the thing I'm really excited ...

MIT researchers have now identified a brain circuit that processes the “when” and “where” components of memory. Credit: Massachusetts Institute of Technology To encode spatial memory ...

Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists discovered cells within the brain's hippocampus that store ... of the entorhinal-hippocampal episodic memory circuit. It's a foundation to build on to ...
