For almost a century, budding neuroscientists have been taught that the headband-like strip of brain tissue over our ears ...

Newborn nerve cells must squeeze through crowded, narrow spaces—through dense tissue, past other cells, and between fibers—to ...

Spiraling waves of neural activity appear and travel in the brain. Scientists hope to learn if these rotating waves on-the-move play a global role in sensing and interpreting internal and external ...

Researchers have developed a new approach for describing the shape of the cerebral cortex, and provide evidence that cortices across mammalian species resemble a universal, fractal pattern.

Researchers discover rotating spiral brain waves that travel across cortical networks, acting as a space-and-time clock for ...

Higher levels of psychopathic personality traits mirror a reduction in the thickness of the outer layer of the brain across ...

A brain region at the base of the skull called the cerebellum ages unevenly, with some parts being more vulnerable to tissue ...

Changes in the brain networks responsible for identity, self-awareness, and the residual self help explain how chronic ...
