Researchers have discovered how the brain keeps time for precise movements, revealing a neural “hourglass” mechanism between ...

The classical view of how the human brain controls voluntary movement might not tell the whole story. That map of the primary motor cortex — the motor homunculus — shows how this brain region is ...

Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we ...

Imagine waking up thirsty at night and having to reach for a glass of water in the dark. Without a clear view, your brain has to estimate where the glass is and where your hand is - a challenge that ...

Neurons deep in the brain not only help to initiate movement -- they also actively suppress it, and with astonishing precision. The findings are especially relevant for better understanding ...

In a novel set of experiments with mice trained to do a sequence of movements and "change course" at the spur of the moment, Johns Hopkins scientists report they have identified areas of the animals' ...

The zebrafish brain, though simpler than its human counterpart, is a complex network of neurons that engage in a ceaseless dance of electrical activity. What if this neural ballet could reveal the ...

Large language models (LLMs), such as the model underpinning the functioning of OpenAI's platform ChatGPT, are now widely ...

Cleveland researchers used innovative balloon game to motivate participants through cycling sessions that showed measurable changes in neural connections.

Stimulating the brain with electricity has been used for 30 years to treat Parkinson’s disease. Now, researchers are testing whether it could help restore hand and arm motion. Stan Nicholas almost ...
