Working in a mouse model, UC Davis researchers are able to distinguish brain cells activated by a psychedelic drug. This image shows the prefrontal cortex of a mouse injected with scFLARE2 (purple) ...

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 ...

Harnessing the muscle of one of the world's fastest supercomputers, researchers have built one of the largest and most detailed biophysically realistic brain simulations of an animal ever. This ...

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 ...

A new study in Neuron reveals that the brain’s executive center sends highly specialized, context-dependent instructions to the visual system rather than a generic broadcast signal. The findings ...

A new mathematical model sheds light on how the brain processes different cues, such as sights and sounds, during decision making. The findings from Princeton neuroscientists may one day improve how ...

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 ...
