Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible for sending messages to the rest of the body, and scientists have long thought that they are settled into one subtype once they develop from stem ...

Microsoft researchers say an overdependency and reliance on AI tools like Copilot may negatively impact a person's critical thinking, leading to the deterioration of cognitive faculties.

Having a smooth brain is also a defense mechanism for some meme-makers: A popular smooth brain meme template relies on the phrase “insult me all you wish. My brain is too smooth.

Mouse Code By combining a complex time-based learning task with advanced brain imaging, researchers were able to watch patterns of time cell activity become more complex as the mice learned. The ...

The superior colliculus in the mammalian brain takes on many important tasks by making sense of our environment. Any mistakes during the development of this brain region can lead to severe ...

It turns out that regular cells—not just highly specialized brain cells such as neurons—have the ability to store information and act on it.

Thought emerges and is controlled in the brain via the rhythmically and spatially coordinated activity of millions of neurons, scientists argue in a new article.

A computer rendering of a parvalbumin-positive neuron, which researchers were able to produce in large quantities for the first time in in-vitro models. Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible ...

Artificial Intelligence Will an overreliance on Copilot and ChatGPT make you dumb? A new Microsoft study says AI 'atrophies' critical thinking: "I already feel like I have lost some brain cells." ...

Now, researchers at University of Utah Health have found that, in mice, a specific population of “time cells” is essential for learning complex behaviors where timing is critical.
