Experiments mapping individual neurons in the sensorimotor cortex of mice show that sharp transitions in functional properties can define cortical regions.

Researchers of the Human Brain Project (HBP) have identified seven new areas of the human insular cortex, a region of the brain that is involved in a wide variety of functions, including ...

Neuroscientists distinguish brain regions based on what they do, but now have a new way to overlay information about how they are built, too. To understand the massive capabilities and complexities of ...

A new “end-to-end” deep learning method for the prediction of behavioral states uses whole-cortex functional imaging that do not require preprocessing or pre-specified features. Developed by medical ...

According to Dr. Karolina Armonaitė, a neuroscientist from Kaunas University of Technology in Lithuania, a more precise understanding of what happens in different areas of the cerebral cortex during ...

Research on the lamprey brain has enabled scientists to push the birth of the cortex back in time by some 300 million years to over 500 million years ago, providing new insights into brain evolution.

"Complex processes are going on in the brain when we sleep," says Dr Karolina Armonaitė, a neuroscientist from Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania. According to her, a more precise ...

A new neuroimaging study suggests that adolescents with borderline personality disorder exhibit distinct patterns of brain ...

All newly detected areas are now available as 3D probability maps in the Julich Brain Atlas, and can be openly accessed via the HBP’s EBRAINS infrastructure. Their findings, published in NeuroImage, ...
