Human navigation turns out to be less like following a static map and more like tuning a control knob inside the brain. New imaging work suggests that deep in the hippocampus, a seahorse-shaped ...

How does the brain perceive time? A new fMRI study identifies a three-stage neural relay from the visual cortex to the frontal regions that constructs our subjective experience of duration and timing.

Neuroscience reveals the brain is shaped through relationships—not in isolation—challenging individualistic psychiatry and ...

A new study published in Nature suggests that the neural foundations of spatial navigation—the brain's internal "GPS"—may have emerged far earlier in evolution than previously believed. The research, ...

New fMRI evidence shows that the brain’s hand and lip maps remain stable years after amputation, reshaping our understanding of neuroplasticity and guiding future prosthetic and rehabilitation ...

In today’s digital cultural environment, a region of the brain is overstimulated, contributing to overthinking and comparing ...

A new discovery by McGill researchers sheds light on how we retain memories over time, even though brain activity is constantly changing. Published in Nature, the preclinical study found the brain's ...

Someone cuts you off in conversation, dismisses your feelings, or takes credit for your work. You can see they registered the ...

Why is AI overconfident? A new study explores "internal embodiment," the missing link in AI safety. Researchers explain how a ...

Cooling down a damaged brain can protect neurons by suppressing inflammation. 1 But lowering the body temperature externally comes with a host of complications and can lead to impaired clotting and ...

A new study by York University researchers has found a potential striking flaw in artificial intelligence (AI) models. Artificial neural networks (ANNs), a type of AI model built to solve vision tasks ...
