Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...

An international team of scientists led by the University of Surrey has discovered that a form of safe, painless, and non-invasive brain stimulation could help people who are at risk of falling behind ...

Princeton researchers found that the brain excels at learning because it reuses modular “cognitive blocks” across many tasks. Monkeys switching between visual categorization challenges revealed that ...

The ability to distinguish between different individuals is crucial for social interactions. Previous research has shown the pivotal role of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in social processes, as ...

A noninvasive brain stimulation therapy could offer fast relief for flu-related sleep issues by calming brain activity and ...

Drug addiction carries an extremely high risk of relapse, as cravings can be reignited by minor stimuli even long after one has stopped using. Previously, this phenomenon was attributed to a decline ...

Scientists profiling small non-coding RNAs in postmortem brain tissue from people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder ...

Understanding the neurobiology of trauma, from the silent Broca’s area to the overactive amygdala, can be a pivotal step in moving from survival to a validated recovery.
