A consortium of researchers has produced the largest and most advanced multidimensional maps of gene regulation networks in the brains of people with and without mental disorders. These maps detail ...

The brain’s wiring forms a unique fingerprint that reveals how we think, remember, and make decisions. A new study offers the ...

Two projects — one that maps the function of the brain’s neuronal network in unprecedented detail and another that combines robotics and light-based computer circuits to create safe self-driving ...

If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...

Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...

To navigate something as complex and dynamic as the brain, a map would help. Researchers have learned an enormous amount about how we think, what drives our behaviors, and why we feel the way we do ...

For 200 years, scientists have speculated that different parts of the brain were responsible for different types of activity and behaviors and have tried to build maps of the brain, carving it up into ...

When removing cancerous tissue in the brain, neurosurgeons often use "awake brain mapping" to minimize the risk of causing unintended disruptions to a patient's quality of life while removing as much ...

Scientists from the Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks (MICRONS) consortium have published the microconnectome of a cubic millimeter of the mouse brain. This is the most complete map of this ...
