Neurotechnology is advancing at an unprecedented pace, with brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) at the forefront of innovation. Over the past decade, BCIs have transitioned from experimental prototypes ...
Blame cell death and fungi for brain decay, not TikTok. TikTok won't really make your brain rot. That doesn't happen until ...
Brad G. Smith, an ALS patient, regains communication abilities with a Neuralink implant, illustrating the potential of brain-computer interfaces in aiding speech impairments.
What does forgiveness look like in the brain? As a neuroscientist, I am always looking for the biological underpinnings of mental processes—not as an effort to distill mystery into molecules, but to ...
A study published in Cell and led by Dr. Du Jiulin's lab at the Institute of Neuroscience, Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has ...
New research showcases how fasting can actually change the brain, rewriting parts of how our bodies actually think.
A study of long-distance runners shows the brain’s remarkable ability to adapt—by burning its own fat. A marathon taxes more than just muscles—it pushes the brain to its metabolic limits.
Shohamy is director of the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute at Columbia University and co-director of Columbia’s Kavli Institute for Brain Science. I recently sat with a young scientist ...
How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles. Now, ...
Dax Shepard, 50, told author and neuroscientist Chris Nowinski that he will donate his brain to science during the May 14 episode of his podcast Armchair Expert Nowinski spoke about the need for ...
None of them has so far included the entire central nervous system -- that is, both the brain and the ventral nerve cord, the functional equivalent of the vertebrate spinal cord. Until now ...
The findings, published in the journal Nature and supported by the National Institutes of Health and U.S. National Science Foundation, provide novel insights on how brain wiring changes during ...
