I’ve long thought that part of the anger of the right wing over the handling of the covid pandemic was the realization that, “Someone else c...

Brain regions specialized for language have been extensively described, yet their arrangement into one or multiple networks remains debated. Using precision functional mapping across three independent...

The Trump administration’s theory of how the federal government should work is a threat to American science.

Goede et al. show that different tremor types engage distinct regions of the motor cortex. Using deep brain stimulation network mapping, they find that optimal treatment of rest tremor involves effect...

Children living in areas with low socioeconomic opportunities have more tired and stressed brains, a new study finds

A new study found that the number one environmental factor influencing brain structure and function is the socioeconomic status of a child's family.

A child’s socioeconomic status, screen time and amount of sleep all show stronger associations with measures of brain structure and function, according to an imaging study of nearly 12,000…

A study of more than 2,300 9- to 10-year-olds found that socioeconomic factors explained most differences in the preteens' brain development.

Children living in areas with low socioeconomic opportunities have more tired and stressed brains, a new study finds

Brain regions exhibit dynamic yet highly coordinated activity patterns that form large-scale functional networks measurable through resting-state correlations. While their association with fluctuating...

Ladwig et al. use precision fMRI methods to show that the lateral prefrontal cortex of individuals features a mosaic of functionally dissociable network patches rather than a single, broad, and functionally flexible region, as suggested by group-averaged data.

Consciousness is not separate from the physical world — our “soul” is of the same nature as our body and any other phenomenon of the world.

Prediction without understanding sustained astronomy through a thousand years of epicycles. Artificial intelligence is now offering neuroscience the same deal.
