how various circuits throughout the brain align their firing is an enduring mystery, one some theorists suggest might have a solution that involves quantum entanglement.

Only in recent years have scientists found that not everyone has the sense of an inner voice – and a new study sheds some light on how living without an internal monologue affects how language is processed in the brain.

Reactivating the connection in elderly mice revived their motivation, transforming them from couch potatoes into impressive joggers.

A study has found that adding caffeine to the drinking water of rats exposed to social isolation stress can protect them from developing memory impairments.

Clusters of brain cells grown in the lab have shown potential as a new type of hybrid bio-computer.

The feasibility of mind uploading rests on three core assumptions. How plausible is each one, really?

Neuroscientists were able to recreate “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1″ using AI to decipher the brain’s electrical activity

Understanding why going without sleep eases depression in some people may lead to less taxing methods to boost mood

From jellyfish to genius, the amazing diversity of animal minds around us evolved through five major changes in the computational capacity of brains.

Scientists have pinpointed a special part of the brain that, when stimulated, appears to produce out-of-body experiences.

Exclusive: Breakthrough could aid research into genetic disorders but raises serious ethical and legal issues

Research suggests that the brain's size, curves and grooves may play important roles in its function, perhaps even more than the connections between neurons.

A study of former National Hockey League players shows that enforcers who spent a lot of time dropping their gloves or in the penalty box lived significantly shorter lives than their peers. Researchers at Columbia University in New York reached the conclusion after analyzing data from 6,039 NHL players from 1967 to last spring.

Donanemab is second drug in a year to succeed in trials in what could be ‘beginning of the end’ of disease

A new artificial intelligence system called a semantic decoder can translate a person's brain activity—while listening to a story or silently imagining telling a story—into a continuous stream of text. The system developed by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin might help people who are mentally conscious yet unable to physically speak, such as those debilitated by strokes, to communicate intelligibly again.

The more vividly a person imagines something, the more likely it is that they believe it’s real, finds a new study by UCL researchers.

A neuroimaging study of adults with varying levels of adverse childhood experiences showed that participants reporting higher levels of maternal antipathy (in childhood) exhibited reduced activation in the brain reward network when they anticipated social rewards. Normally, activations in brain regions underlying reward processing are elevated when a person is anticipating social rewards. The study was published in Translational Psychiatry.

Dog ownership is a lot of furry companionship, tail wags and chasing balls, and ample unconditional love. However, some dog owners are also managing canine pals struggling with mental illness.

Researchers around the world are training AI to re-create images seen by humans using only their brain waves. Experts say the technology is still in its infancy, but it heralds a new brain-analysis industry.

More magnesium in our daily diet leads to better brain health as we age, according to scientists from the Neuroimaging and Brain Lab at The Australian National University (ANU).
