Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development of computational models inspired by the brain's layered organization, also ...

For more than a century, brain imaging has been a story of trade-offs: sharp pictures but slow timing, or fast signals with ...

Views at various scales of two kinds of neurons (calretinin-expressing in cyan and somatostatin-expressing in magenta) in the prefrontal cortex of a human brain. Observing anything and everything ...

What’s so special about the human brain? What distinguishes the human brain from the brains of other animals? These intriguing questions have been approached from many directions, but here the focus ...

The planum temporale area in the left hemisphere (shown in red), an area essential for language in humans, is larger than that in the right hemisphere (shown in green) in the majority of baboons. Only ...

A suite of three innovations by an MIT-based team enables high-resolution, high-throughput imaging of human brain tissue at a full range of scales and mapping connectivity of neurons at single cell ...

I got exclusive access to preserved human body parts at Experience Anatomy in Charlotte, NC, including a liver, stomach, lungs, kidney, femur, brain, heart, and skull! In this video, I share a glimpse ...

Scientists at the University of Amsterdam discovered that our brains automatically understand how we can move through different environments—whether it's swimming in a lake or walking a path—without ...
