Vision happens when patterns of light entering the eye are converted into reliable patterns of brain activity. This ...

Scientists have developed a geometric deep learning method that can create a coherent picture of neuronal population activity during cognitive and motor tasks across experimental subjects and ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research have mapped the molecular landscape of the mouse hippocampus, a ...

Knight Initiative researchers are investigating the detailed processes behind how the brain learns to control movement. Their ...

It turns out your brain might not be the only part of your body that remembers. Scientists at NYU have found that cells outside the brain—like those from your kidneys—can actually "learn" and form ...

In the parable of the blind men and the elephant, several blind men each describe a different part of an elephant they are touching – a sharp tusk, a flexible trunk, or a broad leg – and disagree ...

A research team from the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), the University of Bonn, and the Medical Center - University of Freiburg has gained new insights into the brain processes involved in encoding ...

Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...
