The human brain’s capacity to prepare for movement and exert cognitive control is underpinned by a complex interplay of neural processes that span motor planning, perceptual anticipation and executive ...

New research has discovered that a neural circuit may explain procrastination. Scientists were able to disrupt this connection using a drug. The study, led by Ken-ichi Amemori, a neuroscientist at ...

As humans and other animals experience new things, their brains continuously update their memory of past events. These ...

Robo-pigeon / Cyborg pigeon is a new type of hybrid intelligent robotic system developed by combining micro-implantable brain-computer interface (BCI) and micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) ...

Animal behavior reflects a complex interplay between an animal’s brain and its sensory surroundings. In a new study published in Nature Neuroscience titled, “Neural sequences underlying directed ...

“I just can’t make it tonight. You have fun without me.” Across much of the animal kingdom, when infection strikes, social contact shuts down. A study headed by researchers at The Picower Institute ...

Food and alcohol cues appear to engage partially distinct EEG oscillatory patterns, with food cues linked mainly to increased delta activity and alcohol-related processing showing alpha and delta ...

When running a fever during infection, we often feel chills, which prompt us to take action to warm ourselves, such as turning on a heater or adding layers of clothing. Increased body temperature ...
