Mice VR Headsets Revolutionise Brain Activity Studies and Behavioural Research
Mice are now being equipped with specially designed virtual reality headsets, allowing researchers to study brain activity in immersive environments. Developed using affordable components, the "MouseGoggles" enable scientists to observe the mice's neural responses as they interact with virtual environments. The study opens new doors for understandi...

Supercomputer Capable Of Mimicking Human Brain To Be Activated In 2024
Researchers have unveiled the world's inaugural supercomputer with the capability to simulate networks on the scale of the human brain.
-
How Video Calls Are Changing Our Brains, Reveals Study
A recent study reveals that neural communication in online interactions is significantly diminished when compared to the activity observed in in-person conversations.

Researchers Propose Energy-Efficient AI Hardware Technology Inspired by Brain's Neuromodulation Capacity
A team of researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have come up with a new artificial intelligence system based on the activity of the human brain. The brain has the capacity to transform its neural topology as needed, which allows it to store or recall memories as needed.

Brain Computer Interface Turns Mental Handwriting Into Text on Screen, Could Help People With Paralysis
A team of researchers at Stanford University have, for the first time, decoded brain activity related to writing by hand. To further explore this, the researchers collaborated with a participant with paralysis who had sensors implanted in his brain. The team then used an algorithm that identified the letters the participant imagined and attempted t...

Excessive Brain Activity Linked To A Shorter Life
One key to a longer life could be a quieter brain without too much neural activity, according to a new study that examined postmortem brain tissue from extremely long-lived people for clues about what made them different from people who died in their 60s and 70s.

Mathematical Method Shows Structure in Brain Neural Activity
A newly-developed mathematical method can detect geometric structure in neural activity in the brain, scientists say.
-
Brain circuits for reading
A new study suggests that brain circuits for reading may be in place earlier than expected in children. Using a scan called functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure brain activity in children, researchers found that reading-related brain networks were in place by age seven.
