Researchers have observed a mechanism in the brain that may ‘pump the brakes’ on acute pain to prevent overload while not inhibiting chronic pain at all.

Claims about a brain implant technology that compresses prison sentences into minutes are based on a concept, not actual technology.

Yet greater awareness of sleep deprivation’s consequences hasn’t translated into a better-rested populace. Data from the CDC ...

Researchers have identified a key neural switch that controls whether animals instinctively flee from a threat or freeze in ...

In animals with social structures, the drive to reproduce is a complex process; governed by the brain, it's influenced by ...

A Bayesian decoder was employed to calculate the posterior probabilities of all position bins. This method assumes that transient counts follow a Poisson distribution and combines transient counts and ...
