For more than a decade, neuroscientists had recordings from monkey brains learning to sort visual patterns. They had analyzed ...

Recent neuroscience studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have enhanced our understanding of how sleep is related to learning and memory. A study just reported in the journal ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...

An MIT-led team built a biologically detailed AI model of the prefrontal cortex–striatum circuit that not only matched macaque learning behavior but predicted a previously unnoticed class of neurons ...

Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this ...
