Children between 12 and 16 years old with mild-to-moderate hearing loss showed differences in their brain responses.
One day we will have a science of consciousness, but it won’t be science as we know it today
Sometimes our brain gets confused and misunderstands what the eyes tell it.
A scientist explains how the brain works, for younger readers.
Researchers have discovered that the hippocampus and neocortex work together.
We are in a battle for our minds. And it isn’t clear we will win.
These tiny nanoparticles might provide a new way to see what’s happening in the brain and even deliver treatments to specific cells – if researchers figure out how to use them safely and effectively.
Your brain balances messages coming from lots of different places to help you see, imagine, remember and dream.
Like a cocktail partygoer able to focus on one discussion in a noisy room, brains are able to make reliable connections against a busy neural background. Here are two phenomena that help it happen.
Ultra-clear maps of individual toes were found in the brains of two foot painters – these are not found in typically developed humans.
Got motion sickness? You’re not alone in the animal kingdom.
Researchers have developed implants small enough to fit inside brain cells.
Sleep paralysis – when you wake up but feel like you can’t move – seems to be more common if you sleep on your back. But we don’t know why.
From Strictly Come Dancing to the Tour de France ‘curses’ have rational explanations. Here, psychologists discuss why belief in them persists.
10% of people are left-handed but we still haven’t uncovered how this changes the way their brains work.
Have you ever walked into a room and realised you can’t remember what you were looking for? We tend to do this more when we are thinking of a few things at once or doing two things at the same time.
BMIs like the ones Neuralink is working on are already used in laboratories around the world as assistive technologies. But melding your mind with an AI is probably not happening anytime soon.
Our brains create new memories, and forget old ones, by forging and breaking connections between nerve cells. Now researchers can do something similar using a light-sensitive electronic chip.
Knowing how the brain prepares for sequences of movements can help us better understand disorders such as stuttering and dyspraxia.
