Researchers at the German Primate Center (DPZ)—Leibniz Institute for Primate Research in Göttingen have discovered that the brain reorganizes itself extensively across several brain regions when it ...

The human brain is a mysterious supercomputer. Billions of neurons buzz within an intricate network that controls our every thought, feeling, and movement. And we've only just begun to understand how ...

Neurons deep in the brain not only help to initiate movement—they also actively suppress it, and with astonishing precision. This is the conclusion of a new study by researchers at the University of ...

Researchers from University College Dublin (UCD) and the ULB Neuroscience Institute have shed light on the brain mechanisms ...

Scientists have traditionally studied how the brain controls movement by asking patients to perform structured tasks while connected to multiple sensors in a lab. While these studies have provided ...

A high-resolution brain interface records movement signals from the brain's surface, enabling real-time control performance similar to invasive implants without entering brain tissue. (Nanowerk ...

How does the brain decide to approach others? Researchers have found that coordinated brain activity linked to social behavior begins seconds before movement starts. In a study using zebrafish, they ...

The human brain is remarkably complex, with trillions of connections that control how you move, think and feel. Yet it’s still vulnerable to debilitating conditions such as paralysis, stroke, epilepsy ...

People with spinal cord injuries often lose movement even though their brains still send the right signals. Researchers tested whether EEG brain scans could capture those signals and reroute them to ...

When you go for a walk, how does your brain know the difference between a parked car and a moving car? This seemingly simple distinction is challenging because eye movements, such as we make when ...
