In a human cell-based brain model, repetitive physical injuries reactivate the common virus, Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV-1), ...

A key facet of Dr. Friston’s prediction model of perception is the ability of the brain to spot errors in prediction ...

Researchers have identified brain mechanisms that help animals suppress instinctive fear responses when threats prove ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed.

People with aphasia-a brain disorder affecting about a million people in the U.S.-struggle to turn their thoughts into words and comprehend spoken language.

A 3D model has been developed that accurately replicates the complex structures of cerebral blood vessels, enabling ...

Using tiny nanopillars, they mimic the soft neural tissue and the brain extracellular matrix fibers. This model provides new insights into how neurons form networks, as well as a novel tool to ...
