Modern neural networks, with billions of parameters, are so overparameterized that they can "overfit" even random, ...

Leiden researchers can now visualize the connections between brain cells. Their microscopy technique could significantly advance the human quest to understand brain functions. The study is published ...

Researchers tracked brain activity across 24 hours, showing how shifting neural control centers drive fatigue and how sleep ...

This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (statedependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level.

Two new studies published in the journals Neuron00792-5) and Naturereveal how the human brain transforms a continuous stream ...

By contrast, glial cells seemed to be electrically silent and were dismissed as dull by most researchers. Some glia, called ...

It doesn’t open up the tapestry of human experience — it reads like it was written by a shut-in with Wi-Fi and a thesaurus.

This valuable study addresses a critical and timely question regarding the role of a subpopulation of cortical interneurons (Chrna2-expressing Martinotti cells) in motor learning and cortical dynamics ...

The race to understand the brain has just crossed a new threshold, with a supercomputer-driven model that behaves less like a ...
