A new study by neuroscientists shows that our brain deals with different forms of visual uncertainty during movements in distinct ways. Depending on the type of uncertainty, planning and execution of ...

Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...

Science fiction has long imagined a world where our brains interact with machines to restore and augment our abilities—think ...

Scientists have built a working simulation of an entire adult fruit fly brain and connected it to a physics-based virtual body, producing what amounts to a digital insect that can process sensory ...

A receptor long known for guiding brain development before birth also shapes how adults learn, determining how strongly the brain locks in behavior and how readily it lets go. Researchers at the City ...

Neuroplasticity is real: Your brain is constantly changing and can form new neural connections throughout your life. Stress is a blocker: Chronic stress inhibits the brain’s ability to adapt and ...
