The human brain is formed by a complex network of neural connections and most of them link neighboring brain regions, which are also the most studied to date. But a recent neuroscientific study by ...

These changes were not spread evenly throughout the brain. Instead, they clustered in a particular region: the hypothalamus, a part of the brain that helps regulate hunger, hormones, and energy ...

From birth to the last moments of life, the human brain is known to change and evolve significantly, both in terms of its ...

Indeed, they believed that nearly the entire green region you see here controlled only instinctual behavior. Thus, the bird's brain was thought to be nearly all instinct driven. The dark and light ...

A team of researchers at UCL and UCLH have identified the key brain regions that are essential for logical thinking and problem solving. The findings, published in Brain, help to increase our ...

Signs of sleep disorders are found in regions of the brain that regulate emotions and executive functions. Signs of sleep deprivation are indicated by alterations within the thalamus. Within the ...

A new study by biomedical engineers and neuroscientists shows that the brain's visual regions play an active role in making sense of information. When you see a bag of carrots at the grocery store ...

The drop in blood oxygen levels that occurs during a sleep apnea episode appears to be linked to degeneration of brain regions associated with memory, researchers reported Wednesday in the journal ...

According to David S. Wack, first author and associate professor of radiology in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at UB, resting-state MRI reveals functional connections, showing ...
