New research shows that the human brain automatically recognizes what actions an environment affords—like walking, climbing, ...

Neuroimaging evidence enhances understanding of the subcortex’s role in the neural mechanisms of working memory updating, providing new insights into midbrain function.

Scientists at the University of Amsterdam discovered that our brains automatically understand how we can move through ...

Human brain organoids implanted into mouse cortex respond to visual stimuli for first time. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2022 / 12 / 221229115657.htm ...

With ultra-high resolution functional MRI, it is possible to differentiate active groups of neurons (blue arrows, which show double stripes of activity) in superficial layers as well as the deepest ...

The researchers cultivated human stem cell-derived neurons in the lab for around 80 days before grafting them into the brains of adult rats that had sustained injuries to their visual cortex.

T here is no simple fix for injuries in the brain: You can’t just slap on some gauze or stick it in a splint. But scientists are working towards new treatment methods for brain damage, and last week ...

Information processing structures of the brain's visual cortex and artificial neural networks. In the actual brain's visual cortex, neurons are connected broadly and smoothly around a central ...

Next you can see pathways from the eyes, which send visual information to the visual cortex in the back of the brain, which processes and compiles that information into what we think of as sight.

Scientists at the Allen Institute, a research center in Seattle, then sliced that piece of the mouse’s brain into more than 25,000 layers, each a tiny fraction of the width of a human hair, and ...

A team of engineers and neuroscientists has demonstrated for the first time that human brain organoids implanted in mice have established functional connectivity to the animals' cortex and ...
