Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) School of Engineering have developed a novel reinforcement learning–based generative model to predict neural signals, creating ...

Picture a star-shaped cell in the brain, stretching its spindly arms out to cradle the neurons around it. That's an astrocyte, and for a long time, scientists thought its job was caretaking the brain, ...

An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain’s electrical activity. It provides a real-time readout of brain “waves”—rhythms ...

Researchers identify a specialized "satellite" language network in the cerebellum, offering new insights into how the brain processes communication and potential treatments for aphasia.

Recent experimental findings suggest that the hippocampus, the brain region primarily associated with memory and navigation, actively reorganizes its neural patterns to anticipate future events.

1 / 8 | What is the human brain primarily made of? This comprises about 60% of the brain, with the remaining 40% being protein, carbohydrates, salt and water.

Brain slice electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, and in vivo two-photon calcium imaging identify circuit dysfunction and epilepsy mechanism in a Kcnc1-A421V/+ mouse model of developmental and ...
