The brain wiring behind scent processing seems to scale across mammalian species.

Offspring of rats exposed to vaporized cannabis had difficulty switching strategies to get a sugar reward, according to a study presented at the Society for Neuroscience conference.

The birds’ ability to multitask may be attributable to a more densely packed cerebral cortex, scientists propose.

The brain can compensate for missing body parts, allowing some people, such as Matthias Buchinger, to function at a very high level despite their disabilities.

What can neuroscientists learn from the masters and other artists?
