Brain Neural Activity

Researchers have unveiled the world's inaugural supercomputer with the capability to simulate networks on the scale of the human brain.

A recent study reveals that neural communication in online interactions is significantly diminished when compared to the activity observed in in-person conversations.

A team of researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have come up with a new artificial intelligence system based on the activity of the human brain. The brain has the capacity to transform its neural topology as needed, which allows it to store or recall memories as needed.

A team of researchers at Stanford University have, for the first time, decoded brain activity related to writing by hand. To further explore this, the researchers collaborated with a participant with paralysis who had sensors implanted in his brain. The team then used an algorithm that identified the letters the participant imagined and attempted t...

One key to a longer life could be a quieter brain without too much neural activity, according to a new study that examined postmortem brain tissue from extremely long-lived people for clues about what made them different from people who died in their 60s and 70s.

Scientists reported Thursday they had picked up human-like electrical activity in lab-grown brains for the first time, paving the way to model neurological conditions and answer fundamental questions on how our gray matter develops.

Horror scenes can help in identifying a key neural pathway in humans that explains how our brain processes feelings of fear and anxiety.

A newly-developed mathematical method can detect geometric structure in neural activity in the brain, scientists say.

A new study suggests that brain circuits for reading may be in place earlier than expected in children. Using a scan called functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure brain activity in children, researchers found that reading-related brain networks were in place by age seven.
