For decades, neuroscientists have developed mathematical frameworks to explain how brain activity drives behaviour in predictable, repetitive scenarios, such as while playing a game. These algorithms ...

New research shows gut bacteria can directly influence how the brain develops and functions. When scientists transferred ...

A study in the journal Neuron revealed something surprising about mouse intelligence — specifically, that they can recognize their own reflections. That may seem insignificant, but sociologists ...

Look in the mirror, and what do you see? You, of course. That answer isn’t as straightforward for all mammals. For decades, scientists have used a psychological milestone called the “Mirror Test” to ...

UCLA researchers have made a significant discovery showing that biological brains and artificial intelligence systems develop remarkably similar neural patterns during social interaction. This ...

Mice have remained the focal point for life sciences research for the past several decades. Their universality in biomedicine ...

Impaired intelligence, movement disorders and developmental delays are typical for a group of rare diseases that belong to GPI anchor deficiencies. Researchers now used genetic engineering methods to ...

Research into the genetic and physiological determinants of voluntary physical activity in mice has elucidated a multifaceted framework where the interplay between inherent genetic predisposition and ...
