Neural circuit diagrams show connections between neurons or brain regions. They are similar to pathways 1 but typically have more complex connections and more variables, and they can be generated ...

Princeton University researchers used fruit fly brains to capture the process by which the brain identifies behaviorally useful information in the external environment and uses it to determine our ...

Diagram showing sympatheic and parasympatheic neural pathways from brain to spine.

New research led by NTT Research Scientist Dr. Hidenori Tanaka advances framework for understanding the brain through artificial neural networks.

The Large Hadron Collider is one of the biggest experiments in history, but it’s also one of the hardest to interpret. Unlike ...

"This work increases understanding of how neural wiring diagrams control hunger. We had previously uncovered a key set of upstream neurons that physically synapse onto and excite AgRP hunger ...

Neural pathway in mice sheds light on how the brain regulates learned immune responses by Ingrid Fadelli, Phys.org Editors' notes ...

A brain pathway that underlies the emotional behaviors critical for survival have been discovered by neuroscientists. The team has identified a chain of neural connections which links central ...

A common theory is that mental imagery activates some of the same neural pathways involved in the actual experience, and a recent study in Psychological Science lends support to that idea.

Using a multidisciplinary approach, Xu's team has found that a second, previously unknown neural pathway is also involved. It acts like releasing the brake pedal on your car to allow motion.
