Brain-inspired chips can slash AI energy use by as much as 100-fold, but the road to mainstream deployment is far from guaranteed.

Your Brain Is Glowing, and Scientists Can’t Figure Out Why Researchers have measured the brain’s faint glow for the first time, hinting at a potential role of “biophotons” in cognition ...

Left and right brains hear speech differently, yet how this divide forms was unclear − until mouse studies showed each hemisphere runs on its own developmental clock.

A new MIT review highlights how dividing visual processing between hemispheres supports attention and memory. This contralateral organization reduces overload and enhances tracking of multiple objects ...

A global team has constructed the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date. A global collaboration of over 150 researchers has created the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian ...

WASHINGTON :Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse's cerebral cortex involved in vision, an ...

Two of the goals of that program are to generate a detailed wiring diagram for the complete mouse brain, and to map long-distance connections between different areas of the human brain.

Researchers studying people's brain activity when looking at abstract art have revealed why we interpret blobs of paint on canvas so differently.

Scientists have long tried to understand the human brain by comparing it to other primates. Researchers are still trying to understand what makes our brain different to our closest relatives. Our ...

These results highlight the flexible nature of numerical quantity processing in the brain, and they are expected to advance our understanding of how the brain handles other types of "magnitude ...

What the pair concluded is that the brain’s decision-making process, when there’s conflicting stimuli, isn’t driven by some novel or emergent solution in high-dimensional networks, but ...
