New research suggests intelligence arises not from a single brain region, but from how networks across the brain work together as an integrated system. Neuroscientists often describe the brain as a ...
Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...
Modern neuroscience understands the brain as a set of specialized systems. Aspects of brain function such as attention, ...
Key points Information processing may occur at multiple levels, from microtubules to brain-wide cell assemblies. Artificial "neural networks" may be similar to genuine brain processes or they may be ...
Intrinsic neural attractors and extrinsic environmental inputs jointly steer the dynamic trajectories of brain activity ...
Lifelong plasticity is a core principle of neuroscience, yet it operates within real limits shaped by effort, stress and ...
The figure shows how the brain works to decode the different aspects of words over time, with phonetics (i.e., sounds) processed first and most quickly and semantic meaning coming later and taking ...
This post is in response to Consciousness and Integrated Information Theory By Paul L. Nunez PhD Does consciousness arise exclusively from complex interactions in brain tissue (materialism)? Or does ...
