Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that had ...

The Individual Brain Charting (IBC) project has released its fifth and largest update of high-resolution fMRI data, adding a ...

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new ...

The Individual Brain Charting (IBC) project has released its fifth and largest update of high-resolution fMRI data, adding a new set of cognitive tasks to one of the most detailed brain-mapping ...

Scientists traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord to control motor function. Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ...

We all have negative thoughts from time to time. But what if those fleeting moments of pessimism were doing more than just dampening your mood? According to new research, the way you think doesn't ...

A new technique tags neurons with RNA barcodes to identify synaptic connections through sequencing. It allows rapid mapping of brain circuits, revealing new connectivity patterns, and aiding ...

In a July 2018 MIT News article, “ Charting the Cerebellum, ” first author Xavier Guell of MIT's McGovern Institute of Brain Research, describes his team’s state-of-the-art mapping of motor and ...

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...
