Brain wiring quiets the voice inside your head Date: September 3, 2013 Source: Duke University Summary: Researchers have developed the first diagram of the brain circuitry that enables a complex ...

To test whether head-direction cells encode conjunctive combinations of two Euler angles, we constructed 2D and 3D firing-rate maps in head-direction space, showing the activity of individual ...

For decades, scientists have tried to peer deep inside the human brain using beams of harmless near-infrared light. The technique, called functional near-infrared spectroscopy, or fNIRS, has become a ...

Life Brain decoder can eavesdrop on your inner voice. As you read this, your neurons are firing – that brain activity can now be decoded to reveal the silent words in your head ...

The brain alone has more than 100 billion neurons to send and receive these signals, or messages. Your spinal cord is a column of tissue that runs from the lower part of your brain to your lower back.
