How the brain gets wired up matters. Consider the neurons involved in the sense of smell. Hook them up wrong, and suddenly ...

Neurons are the specialized cells that allow our bodies to transmit impulses, like factories that process inputs. They send ...

A new MIT study illustrates how areas within the brain’s executive control center tailor their messages in specific circuits ...

MIT researchers discovered that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t just send generic control signals—it tailors its messages to ...

Learn how the X-ray ptychography imaging technique is pushing the boundaries of neuroscience by mapping the mouse brain ...

New research shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t simply broadcast generic commands to sensory regions—it sends finely tailored signals that shape how the brain processes vision depending on ...
