Using machine learning tools to analyze the data, the scientists found that the brain activity no longer clearly reflected what stage of learning the mice were in or what choices they were likely to ...

A tiny stack of printed nanomaterials, thinner than a human hair and flexible enough to bend with living tissue, just did something no fabricated device has done before: it fired electrical spikes so ...

Now, researchers at the University of California, Riverside have identified a key neural circuit that helps the brain "change gears." The study, published in eLife, shows that a tiny brainstem ...

Most people have experienced the feeling: switching from one task to another, only to find the brain momentarily stuck in the old mode of thinking. Sometimes, even after realizing a strategy no longer ...

New USC research offers an unseen insight into how the brain shifts gears. The researchers discovered that our innate ability to make quick changes in motor function are the result of a unique brain ...

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Most people have experienced the feeling: switching from one task to another, only to find the brain momentarily stuck in the old mode of thinking. Sometimes, even after realizing ...
