The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...

In congenital handlessness, where individuals rely on their feet for compensatory manual functions, reorganization in the primary somatosensory cor...

One of the most puzzling aspects of perception is postdiction: later information can change how a previous stimulus is perceived [1,2]. This indicates that perception is not a livestream of the extern...

Recent work has revealed two food-selective areas in the lateral and ventromedial occipitotemporal cortex (OTC). These studies have shown that food selectivity in these regions cannot be explained by ...

Join the Middle Eastern Systems Neuroscience Symposium on November 14, 2025, UCSD, San Diego, in conjunction with the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) meeting. This event fosters scientific collaboratio...

Duties & Responsibilities

The US science-funding agency is withholding $1 billion of its budget so that the money can go to a special White House project.

Join the Department of Experimental and Applied Psychology (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) as Assistant Professor in cognitive neuroscience.

Every movement unfolds with a simple question: Where is my body? The nervous system answers through proprioception - the sense of limb position (static position sense) and movement (dynamic propriocep...

Nature Human Behaviour, Published online: 13 August 2026; doi:10.1038/s41562-026-02548-8Weber et al. show that the normally conserved spatial organization of the digit response maps in primary somatosensory cortex is altered in patients with surgically repaired hand nerves.

Abstract. Episodic memories are known to change with each act of retrieval. We hypothesize that accessing semantic knowledge in different ways during episodic retrieval—from unique perceptual features...

Abstract. Recent advances in neural networks trained on natural language have revealed that category-selective regions encode complex semantics and contextual information of natural scenes in addition...

Sighted people rely on vision to recognize and navigate the local environment. By adulthood, human cortex contains at least three regions that resp...

Nature Neuroscience - Charbonneau et al. compare how the insula is structured and functions in humans, monkeys and rodents, revealing similarities and differences across species that are likely to...

There are scales and metrics you use to evaluate the lives of most neuropsychologists, and then there are those you have to invent in order to speak with any degree of justice about people like Brenda...

Discover grants, fellowships and funding opportunities for neuroscience research at all career stages.

Science communication plays an essential role in bridging the gap between researchers and the general public. Now, more than ever, it is essential for neuroscientists to interact with their communitie...

Wearable haptic and robotic devices must transmit useful forces and tactile information without remaining perceptually intrusive. Here we show that perceived weight provides a behavioral marker of thi...

Every technology that changed medicine in the last half century traces back to basic science that had no obvious application when it was funded.
