Tiny, shallow grooves on the surface of the brain may provide new insight into how aging and Alzheimer’s disease affect brain ...

How does your brain instantly know how to move through new places? A new study helps explain the science behind your internal ...

They also genetically labeled different brain cell types to compare the density and spatial location of vasculature across various regions. They published their findings in Cell Reports on June 21.

The human brain is formed by a complex network of neural connections and most of them link neighboring brain regions, which are also the most studied to date. But a recent neuroscientific study by ...

To test the limits, the researchers started by firing a powerful, ultrafast laser into the side of a volunteer’s head. The ...

However, little is knowing about connection of the brain regions supporting these important cognitive functions with the human memory system. The human memory system is seated in the medial ...

These scans were processed to map grey matter, focusing on identifying a network of brain regions labeled as 'last in, first out' (LIFO), previously determined to be particularly sensitive to aging.

The brain can be classified into three major regions — the cerebrum, cerebellum, and the brainstem, each responsible for essential activities like movement, balance, and autonomic functions.

The brain regions involved in recognizing and naming emotional states—primarily the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex and language areas—show enhanced functional connectivity after regular practice.

These brain regions in the cortex that carry out more advanced functions appear to represent much more complex states, allowing someone to truly feel mixed emotions.
