A New Way to Understand the Brain’s Intricate Rhythm
Researchers have found evidence in humans that individual neurons time their firing to a deeper beat. But there’s a mystery: What does it mean? ..

New neuroscience-based technologies aim to improve decisionmaking under pressure. But solving systemic problems will take a lot more than that. ..
Some of nature’s simplest animals suggest that sleep evolved long before centralized nervous systems. ..
In early experiments, a paralyzed man with implants in his premotor cortex typed 90 characters per minute—by envisioning he was writing by hand. ..
For the first time, researchers were able to observe, in extra-fine detail, how neurons behave as consciousness shuts down. ..
Some groups of neurons process sensory data and memories at the same time. New work shows how the brain pivots those representations to prevent interference. ..
Want to be more sociable or less of a doormat? There's an (experimental) app for that. ..
Social isolation as been linked to poorer physical and mental health, but scientists are finally starting to understand its neurological impact. ..
A new study shows that concussions and other head traumas can have long-lasting effects on our health. ..
