Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

The universe has no brain. It has no gray matter, no nervous system, no neurons firing electrical impulses—and yet, that ...

"Using brain-machine interface technology to directly write in information to the brain... as in The Matrix... it’s complicated." Reading time 13 minutes It was a work night in the Trump era, and I ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

Understanding how the human brain stores information and later uses it to complete various tasks has been a long-standing goal of neuroscience and psychology research. Past studies have identified ...

A new, high-performance brain-computer interface (BCI) can be rapidly implanted through a minimally invasive procedure. The ...

Your brain doesn't have to age on autopilot. New research shows we can slow—and potentially reverse—brain aging.

Neuroscientists collect huge amounts of data, ranging from brain activity measurements to behavioral observations. Finding patterns in those data can be difficult even for computers, but for humans it ...

A new study suggests that taking a two-hour nap during a night shift may help restore brain function and memory in nurses.
