Mayo Clinic researchers have developed a new, personalized approach to deep brain stimulation (DBS) for people with ...

A new study from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience shows how flickering light can cause hallucinations in our brain: it produces "standing waves" of brain activity. The work is published in ...

The timing of our brain waves shapes which words we hear. Researchers used psychophysics, neuroimaging, and computational modeling to test whether neural timing influences perception of more or less ...

These wide-ranging waves quickly link the specific constellations of brain regions that work in harmony to perform a task. In the space of just a few seconds, a person walking down a city block might ...

Scientists have spent decades trying to understand whether the layered sheet of tissue that covers your brain follows one ...

As dementia becomes more widespread, Mayo Clinic researchers believe that artificial intelligence is the key to enabling earlier and faster diagnoses. By pairing AI and EEG (electroencephalogram) ...

Have you ever put your keys down and then completely forgotten where to find them? The brain has to work hard to protect information in your working memory from distractions. How this process works ...

Scientists are one step closer to learning more about the experiences that people have reported having just before they die — including the light at the end of the tunnel. A surge of activity happens ...

A new study found waves of brain aging occur at ages 57, 70, and 78. Some healthy habits can combat mental decline by improving memory and cognition. Brain aging accelerates at three specific points ...

There lies a paradox in sleep. Its apparent tranquility juxtaposes with the brain's bustling activity. The night is still, but the brain is far from dormant. During sleep, brain cells produce bursts ...
