How a brain's anatomical structure relates to its function is one of the most important questions in neuroscience. It ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

A consortium of researchers has produced the largest and most advanced multidimensional maps of gene regulation networks in the brains of people with and without mental disorders. These maps detail ...

Brain-wide association studies, which use magnetic resonance imaging to identify relationships between brain structure or function and human behavior or health, have faced criticism for producing ...

Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons ...

Working long hours may change the structure of your brain, including regions associated with emotional regulation and executive function— such as problem solving and working memory—new research has ...

Although it’s not entirely clear what causes obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), neuroimaging studies suggest that people with the condition have distinct differences in their brain structure and ...

Brain volume and function are altered in individuals with opioid use disorder, a new Yale study finds. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI), researchers observed the ...

The brain never rests: even during deep sleep or under anesthesia, it maintains rhythmic electrical activity known as slow ...
