Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a ...

A protein capable of recording incoming chemical signals of brain cells was engineered by scientists, which could decode the ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

Language enables people to transmit thoughts to each other because each person’s brain responds similarly to the meaning of words. In newly published research, my colleagues and I developed a ...

Neuroscience shows traditional teaching is not enough. Instead, an experiential approach can return learning to its natural ...

The technology to decode our thoughts is drawing ever closer. Neuroscientists at the University of Texas have for the first time decoded data from non-invasive brain scans and used them to reconstruct ...

Human brains still react to chimp voices, hinting at a deep evolutionary link in how we recognize sound.

Japanese, Italian, Ukrainian, Swahili, Tagalog and dozens of other spoken languages cause the same "universal language network" to light up in the brains of native speakers. This hub of language ...
