When preparing a scientific paper, we typically write with coauthors who have different backgrounds and styles, and we target readers who have little time and patience. To help both readers and writer...

Small neuroimaging studies are unlikely to capture consistent anatomical changes related to conditions such as autism, schizophrenia and mood disorders, according to a new “wake-up call” study.

Today in Science and science: Ice age hunters’ penchant for female mammoths, a detailed vagal map, and more

Depression is marked by anhedonia, social withdrawal, and a diminished capacity to learn from positive experiences—features that can be framed within predictive processing. Here, we review findings fr...

The 79-year-old “Lethal Weapon” star shared with Lester Holt that he was diagnosed with the progressive neurodegenerative disease a few years ago.

Neural oscillations play a critical role in shaping neuronal firing patterns, but little is known about whether neurons show preferential firing at specific oscillatory frequencies. This study uses re...

Psychedelic drugs are poised to become mainstream treatments, yet we lack a circuit-level account of how they reshape brain activity. Emerging evid...

Tumour network mapping of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) defines a conserved and prognostically important brain network in children with DMG, consistent with the hypothesis that DMGs exploit otherw...

As millions of soccer fans pack FIFA World Cup venues, public health scientists created a wastewater monitoring network to forecast potential disease threats—from measles to Ebola

ALT: Donald Glover's 'Good' Meme Moment

Past work has documented the importance of formal collaboration, particularly coauthorship, in increasing research productivity and innovation. How...

ASU Atomic, a new tool in beta at Arizona State University, takes faculty lectures and chops them into extremely short clips, that AI then attempts to turn into learning materials.

The amygdala shows abnormal metabolism in depression, a disorder marked by altered emotion, motivation, and learning. Yet its causal role in these pro…

Co-registration of neural and behavioral measures is key in developing a holistic understanding of reading. However, researchers must study not only n…

This narrative review explores the idea of understanding mental disorders according to homeostatic property clusters rather than through typical classification systems.

Resting-state scalp electroencephalography (EEG) is a promising method for predicting patient outcomes of antidepressant treatments. Machine-learning-based EEG analysis of averaged power features (APF...

Inferring the structure of primary rewards from connectomics

Mental health awareness campaigns aim to decrease stigma, increase help-seeking and improve mental health literacy. However, they might also negatively impact how individuals interpret, label and resp...

A series of graphics reveals how the Trump administration has sought historic cuts to science and the research workforce.

Han et al. show that frontal theta oscillations rhythmically control access to working memory. The theta rhythm sweeps across the mental image, shaping behavior by coordinating spikes and beta oscilla...

Epilepsy constitutes a clinically manifest excitability disorder that is characterized by aberrant electrophysiological activity in the electroencephalogram (EEG). The correct identification of the se...
