Researchers tease out the effects of the two cravings by having participants gamble for the chance to satisfy them.

The technology, tested out on patients with epilepsy who already had electrodes implanted in their brains, is currently limited to 30–50 sentences.

Imaging reveals how cyclical patterns of brain activity differ between conscious and unresponsive individuals.

Researchers could anticipate which way an eight-day-old zebrafish will flick its tail based on brain activity 10 seconds earlier.

The surprising finding comes courtesy of two study participants with implanted electrode arrays that record activity at single-neuron resolution.

Neural activity associated with the meaning of words is independent of whether those words are read or listened to, a study finds.

During deep sleep, rhythmic pulses of cerebrospinal fluid are coupled with slow waves of electrical activity and fluctuating blood levels in the human brain.

Contaminants in the atmosphere appear to have harmful effects on neurodevelopment and cognitive function.
