In a study published in Science, researchers at Karolinska Institutet describe the neural processes behind how morphine relieves pain. This is valuable knowledge because the drug has such serious side ...

When animals and humans explore their surrounding environment or complete specific tasks, their brains simultaneously support both their mental (i.e., cognitive) processes and physical movements. For ...

Researchers describe the neural processes behind how morphine relieves pain. This is valuable knowledge because the drug has such serious side effects. In a study published in Science, researchers at ...

A recent study identified beta frequency neural activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) of the brain's frontal lobe as the key neural signature underlying processes associated with recognizing ...

The brains of mammals continuously combine signals originating from different regions to produce various sensations, emotions, thoughts and behaviors. This process, known as information integration, ...

First and foremost, we breathe in order to absorb oxygen - but this vital rhythm could also have other functions. Over the past few years, a range of studies have shown that respiration influences ...

Brett Kagan, Chief Scientific Officer at Cortical Labs, commented: “This breakthrough is a major step forward in not only how we study and understand diseases and drugs that are designed to treat ...

A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.
