The complex connectivities of mammalian and avian brains can confound the outcomes of transient neural manipulations, researchers show.

Researchers present sonogenetics, a technique to activate select Caenorhabditis elegans neurons with ultrasound waves.

As the flying mammals navigate complex environments, they make use of specialized brain cells that cooperate to build a coordinate system that works in three dimensions.

A study reveals structural differences between the brains of artists and non-artists.

Researchers can see the differences in the neuronal activity of monkeys that use different strategies to reach out to a target.

Even while remaining motionless, macaques are able to increase the activity of a particular brain region, improving their concentration and search abilities.
