Scientists found our brain may organize behavior by activity patterns rather than fixed regions, reshaping how brain control ...

Modern neuroscience understands the brain as a set of specialized systems. Aspects of brain function such as attention, ...

Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human brain? Outside of the theory itself being devis ...

New research suggests intelligence arises not from a single brain region, but from how networks across the brain work together as an integrated system. Neuroscientists often describe the brain as a ...

A new study suggests that the brain processes information with high efficiency by synchronizing the physical wiring of neural networks with the varying speeds of local brain activity. Published in ...

Scattered plots are the effect size as a function of age, with curves fitted by GAM (blue color) and the square root model (red color). Shaded areas around the curves represent standard errors. Dashed ...

A new study published in Communications Biology sheds light on how the psychedelic compound DMT changes the brain’s dynamic behavior. Researchers found that DMT reduces the amount of energy the brain ...

A new doctoral dissertation shows that gambling disorder is linked to brain networks involved in self-control and brain reward functions. By combining several brain imaging methods, the research ...
