Now, using a novel system developed at Janelia, researchers led by the Dudman Lab found that a part of the basal ganglia called the striatum is not involved in action selection as previously thought.

The following is a summary of “Clinical and imaging risk factors for early neurological deterioration and long-term ...

Study finds the biological heterogeneity of schizophrenia is reflected in structural irregularities of the brain as well as functional abnormalities.

Neuroimaging can capture brain activity in response to stimuli before a person decides how to respond. Initial affective responses—broadly good or bad feelings about a stimulus—have been associated ...

BACKGROUND: Catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias, one of the most rapidly growing procedures in cardiac ...

Synaptic plasticity is the biological process by which specific patterns of synaptic activity result in changes in synaptic strength and is thought to contribute to learning and memory. Both pre ...

Researchers have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes as the ever-changing neuronal ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes, such as ...

When it comes to tau tangles, cortical deposits receive the lion’s share of scientists’ attention, but it is the tiny subcortical regions where tangles originate that might set the course for ...

Objectives/methods Using a specially designed functional MRI (fMRI) cycling ergometer, we have determined the sequence in which the cortical and subcortical brain regions are modulated at low and high ...

Objective: Approximately 10%-17% of patients with a recent small subcortical infarction (RSSI) experience an adverse functional prognosis at three months. Identifying risk factors for poor prognosis ...
