Modern neuroscience understands the brain as a set of specialized systems. Aspects of brain function such as attention, ...

The human brain's soft folds and ridges, arising in early development and continuing through the first 18 months of life, are ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a ...

New research suggests intelligence arises not from a single brain region, but from how networks across the brain work together as an integrated system. Neuroscientists often describe the brain as a ...

For decades, scientists have searched for a safe way to reach deep parts of the human brain without cutting into the skull.

There’s a lot to love about brains. They are arguably the most complex organ in the entire human body. 86 billion neurons send electrical and chemical signals back and forth within your brain to ...

We build AI systems to mimic the human brain: writing emails, answering questions and predicting what comes next. But new research aims to turn that relationship around—using large language models ...

Lifelong plasticity is a core principle of neuroscience, yet it operates within real limits shaped by effort, stress and ...

Researchers have used a new human reference genome, which includes many duplicated and repeat sequences left out of the original human genome draft, to identify genes that make the human brain ...

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their behavior.

Mohanasankar spoke to indianexpress.com on his research interests, the pathbreaking work being done by the centres he heads, ...
