Research into the biological basis of gender identity is in its infancy, but clues are beginning to emerge.

Brain studies have yielded a mixed picture of the neural similarities and differences between people of different genders.

Researchers create a program that can use fMRI data to identify which musical pieces are in participants' heads.  

Researchers map brain activity associated with a person’s anticipation of or direct confrontation with danger.

The brain is activated differently when it’s contemplating, rather than directly facing, a threat.

Presentations at the Society for Neuroscience meeting point to changes in neurons and connectivity between brain regions as potential components of the enigmatic condition.

Scientists provide evidence that blood-flow patterns in six-month-old babies’ brains can accurately predict cognitive and behavioral markers of autism spectrum disorder two years later.  

The Nobel laureate helped lay the groundwork for today’s ubiquitous magnetic resonance imaging machines.

Neurons can continue to capture a short-term memory without continuous firing, researchers show.  

Researchers seek to disentangle the complexity of the human mind from a cross-disciplinary perspective, but the phenomenon may be out of the reach of human understanding.
