BEIJING -- Researchers from the Institute of Automation at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have revealed the intrinsic relationship between the topological structure of human brain cortex ...

and conscious initiation of movements happen elsewhere in the brain; the motor cortex just receives these signals, relaying them directly to muscles. The motor cortex is organized in a way that ...

Brain-wide cell-type comparisons made it ... the mammalian neocortex Gene regulatory programs in the primary motor cortex of human, macaque, marmoset and mouse were investigated with single ...

Little is known about the associated brain activation during these sleep rhythms, and even less about their functional implications. In this study, we investigated the brain-wide activation underlying ...

CMU researchers have identified a region in the brain's visual cortex that responds to food and have developed a theoretical framework that could explain the origins of this selectivity.

was placed on the motor cortex of a patient undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for essential tremor. As the patient performed hand gestures, special high-resolution sensors simultaneously ...
