Princeton scientists found that the brain uses reusable “cognitive blocks” to create new behaviors quickly.

Humans are able to make relatively stable judgments and swiftly adjust their strategies, even when goals suddenly change or situations become ...

我们的大脑会根据个体的清醒程度、兴奋程度或活跃程度来调整视觉感知。不同的大脑区域以相反的方式微调视觉，帮助我们专注于重要事物。麻省理工学院（MIT）的一项新研究表明，视觉引导动物行为，但这种关系是双向的。该研究于11月25日发表在《神经元》（Neuron）杂志上，报告称行为和内在状态直接影响视觉信息的处理方式。在小鼠中，大脑的前额叶皮层（prefrontal cortex），作为执行控制的主要中心 ...

Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this ...

This potentially valuable cross-sectional longitudinal study leverages high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to examine its effect on ...

Sleep deprivation effects harm brain health, impairing memory, attention, and emotion. Chronic loss risks neurodegeneration ...

Many horse owners think the existence of the prefrontal cortex is a major controversy in equine science. It’s not. It’s just an area that’s riddled with misinformation. Curiously, most people—horsey ...
