Long overlooked and underestimated, glial cells—non-neuronal cells that support, protect and communicate with neurons—are finally stepping into the neuroscience spotlight. A new Florida Atlantic ...

Researchers identify the rostral prefrontal cortex as the essential bridge between spontaneous and executive brain networks ...

Motor imagery electroencephalography (EEG) signals depict changes in brain activity during imagined limb movements. Conventional methods, however, often fail to capture these spatiotemporal variations ...

Researchers identified two brain networks involved in word retrieval -- the cognitive process of accessing words we need to speak. A semantic network processes meaning in middle/inferior frontal gyri, ...

Researchers at the Paris Brain Institute have identified the rostral prefrontal cortex as a key hub linking brain networks that generate and control creative thought. Studying patients with behavioral ...

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 have ...

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

Scientists have made a major advance in developmental neuroscience, creating the very first detailed atlas of how the vascular network of a mouse's brain grows after birth. Their study is published in ...

When a writer comes up with a striking metaphor, when an engineer solves a tricky problem by combining seemingly unrelated ...

An international research team investigated the brains of 16 jazz pianists while they played a piece from memory, improvised based on the melody, and freely improvised based on the chord changes. The ...
