Interestingly, when your mind is at rest, your brain does not 'shut down', but rather engages in the default mode network (DMN), a collection of brain ...

Tau hyperphosphorylation and conformational changes in the brain parenchyma start around seven months. Tangle-like pathology is mainly observed in the brain stem and spinal cord, and to a lesser ...

This important study shows that a very slow (infraslow) oscillation occurs in voltage recordings from the dentate gyrus of the adult mouse. The authors suggest that it is related to sleep stage and ...

Using PET imaging, they found that dopamine levels spike in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex when people switch between tasks — and the more dopamine released, the more efficiently they adapted.

A 2021 study found that long-term love boosts activation in cognitive areas of the brain, such as the angular gyrus, which is associated with complex language functions, and the mirror neuron ...

Many studies have pointed to the prefrontal cortex as a major player in our capacity for focused attention, strategic thinking, and impulse control. The new data suggests that the neural regions ...

Listen to the interview in episode #140 (in Swedish). The prefrontal cortex is the centre for advanced cerebral function – it is here our impressions of the world are formed, plans forged and ...

Methods: In this study, pretrial EEG data were collected from ten patients with prefrontal lesions (mainly located in inferior and middle frontal gyrus) and fourteen matched healthy controls, and EEG ...
