A part of the brain called the pallium is responsible for many complex functions. In mammals, the pallium is thought to be where the neocortex forms, and gives rise to the cerebral cortex and ...

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs known as assembloids, which are derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) ...

Researchers have developed a new approach for describing the shape of the cerebral cortex, and provide evidence that cortices across mammalian species resemble a universal, fractal pattern.

In a study published in Developmental Cell, a team led by Prof. Robert K. Naumann from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and researchers from BGI ...

On neuroscience’s big stage Nov. 15, MIT Professor Earl K. Miller will propose that thought and consciousness emerge from the fast and flexible organization of the cortex produced by the analog ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

The brain does not merely recognize the human voice. A study from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) shows that certain areas ...
