Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...

New Delhi | Damage to the 'medial' region of the prefrontal cortex -- the brain region that helps with planning and achieving goals -- could make one more impulsive and likely to be influenced by ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...

Research that is taking a closer look at activity in the thalamus—a region long considered a relay station for the brain and involved in consciousness and motor activity—reveals the thalamus may play ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...
