Brain imaging offers a way to examine how different regions of the brain participate in cognitive function”— Dr.

Researchers found that mice coordinate survival behavior through brain activity in the prefrontal cortex, which tracks both ...

Researchers discover that the prefrontal cortex models the behavior of social partners, allowing groups to self-correct and maintain collective survival during hardship.

Researchers identify a gene expression program in the living human brain that tracks with real-time neurotransmission, bridging the gap between genetics and electrical brain activity.

People may think of survival as an individual act—every animal (and person) for themselves. But a new study from UCLA suggests that when it comes to facing hardship together, social groups may ...

People who are stressed out have a harder time orienting themselves. A new study used neuroimaging to reveal why this happens.

The stress hormone cortisol disrupts the brain's navigational system. It impairs the function of the grid cells that play a ...

Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the living human brain, offering unprecedented insight into the molecular ...

Scientists have identified a hidden brain signal tied to strength and aging, offering a new, early clue to frailty that could reshape how we understand physical decline. Credit: Stock A new study ...

Most people end their day the same way: screen on, brain off. A show, a scroll, maybe both at once. It's the path of least ...
