The view that the frontal lobes might achieve their executive control via whole new principles of brain function has been attractive. In fact several of the world's leading neuroimagers as well as ...

In the first weeks after birth, brain volume is typically about a third of what it will be in adulthood. By age 3, it will have expanded to about 80 percent of adult size. While most of the brain ...

The new study, published in Brain Communications, found that shrinkage in the front and side of the brain (prefrontal, temporal and cingulate cortices, and the hippocampus) was linked to ...

When scientists turned off this 'filter' - by inducing reversible brain lesions in the frontal lobes of volunteers ...

A new AI tool builds sophisticated map of mouse brains. It is a detailed view of the brain like never seen before. In a significant technological leap, University of Florida researchers have ...

In 1979, famed molecular biologist Francis Crick stated that it would be “impossible to create an exact wiring diagram for a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and the way all its neurons are firing,” ...

Mapping the density, molecular features and energy-transformation capacity of cell organelles called mitochondria in the brain reveals region- and cell-type-specific variability that tracks with ...

Instead, the race begins, the fans cheer, and the blast is forgotten. To not react negatively to a starter pistol, the brain has to recognize the blast as harmless and then shut down any fearful ...
