While each limb acts independently, signals are transmitted back to the octopus’s central nervous system. The octopus’ brain sits between its eyes at the front of its mantle, or head, couched ...

Stress is not simply "in your head." It's a full-body emotion that has a significant impact on how your brain and nervous system function. By recognizing stress symptoms and taking proactive ...

Previously, scientists were unsure exactly how the ventral nerve cord (a vital component of invertebrates’ central nervous system) developed in ecdysozoans. However, a close look at Cambrian-age (541 ...

By linking nervous system structures to broader evolutionary trends, the study provides a clearer picture of how the diverse ecdysozoan lineages arose and adapted to their environments.

The limbic system is a structure that consists of several different parts, playing critical roles in certain functions we experience daily. We have discovered a good deal about the limbic system ...

The term dates back to 1975, when Mandelbrot — to whom it is credited — applied the mathematics of theoretical fractional dimensions to the geometric patterning found in the natural world. Fractals ...
