Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Scientists have created a digital fruit fly brain simulation using a mapped connectome and AI, letting the virtual insect move, groom, and search for food in a 3D environment.

To this day, critical procedures in neurosurgery and neuromodulation for patients with devastating diseases are guided by knowledge on how the brain is wired that derives largely from animal studies.

As millions of Americans adjust their clocks for daylight saving time this week, many experience disruptions in their sleep and daily routines – a reminder of the importance of circadian rhythms that ...

If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...
