Neural connectivity patterns were consistently scaled down with the amount of external support used, showing the brain activity was significantly lower among LLM users.

Listening to your heart improves decisions by integrating emotion with reason.

In my undergraduate course, Dangerous Minds, I'd use the case of Stephen Stanko to demonstrate problems with neuroscience experts in court: Brain scans aren't definitive.

Levin's research reveals how bioelectricity influences development and forms, suggesting organisms can be shaped far beyond genetic constraints through electric signaling.

Our research team recently ran a study showing that adults can, in fact, learn absolute pitch - and do this quite well! With the right kind of training, even adults can develop this skill that was once thought to be gated by genetics and confined to those who had exposure to music training in early childhood.

A team uncovered a brain circuit that may explain why we crave a sweet treat when we are already full.

The expression of the prostaglandin EP3 receptor marks a unique population of median preoptic nucleus neurons that are required for torpor and lipopolysaccharide-induced fever.

The study found no differences in brain asymmetry between individuals with switched organ placements and those with typical placements, challenging existing assumptions about brain-body connection.

"If you have an 'aha! moment' while learning something, it almost doubles your memory," says Roberto Cabeza, lead author of the new study, in a statement.

Each bird follows simple rules of interaction with its closest neighbors, yet out of these local interactions emerges a complex, coordinated dance that can respond swiftly to predators and environmental changes.

The study highlights that ubrogepant, a drug designed for migraine relief, can also effectively reduce debilitating prodromal symptoms such as fatigue and brain fog.

Singing activates emotional brain networks that bypass cognitive defenses.

"After meticulous efforts not to exceed your energy envelope, you may have achieved some hard-won, yet tentative stability... attempting the activity, you find yourself hit by a fresh wave of symptoms."
