A mathematical equation can assess how you feel about experiences using your mood and brain activity. People can struggle to accurately assess how they feel…
New research shows how a racing heart may alter decision-making brain circuits. Mount Sinai study discovers that body-state monitoring neurons can hijack the decision-making process.…
Groundbreaking Research Identifies Likely Cause of Alzheimer’s Disease – Potential for New Treatment
A likely cause of Alzheimer’sAlzheimer’s disease is a disease that attacks the brain, causing a decline in mental ability that worsens over time. It is…
An artist’s depiction of a Kaili Leanchoilia showing its long scissor-like appendages situated behind sideward eyes on stubby stalks. Fourteen pairs of appendages likely served…
Protein deposits in retina and brain appear to parallel possible neurodegeneration, an insight that might lead to easier, quicker detection. Amyloid plaques are protein deposits…

Like biologically based systems (left), complex emergent behaviors—which arise when separate components are merged together in a coordinated system—also result from neuromorphic networks made up…
Artificial intelligence could spot the early signs of dementia from a simple brain scan long before major symptoms appear – and in some cases before…
When rats are fed a high fat diet, this disturbs the body clock in their brain that normally controls satiety, leading to over-eating and obesity.…
A computer game that induces mice to experience hallucination-like events could be a key to understanding the neurobiological roots of psychosis, according to a study…
New research has discovered that the strength of the connection between our brain and internal organs is linked to how we feel about our appearance.…
The process of better understanding the brain is like building a puzzle whose pieces grow in number over time. In a paper published in Nature…
