For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical maps divide the brain into regions according to structural variations in the ...
Scientists found our brain may organize behavior by activity patterns rather than fixed regions, reshaping how brain control ...
Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...
Studies of brain injuries and electrical stimulation seemed to bear this out. Damaging the Broca’s area, for instance, interfered with speech, and stimulating specific tissues could lead to specific ...

Neuronal activity maps challenge traditional anatomical divisions of prefrontal cortex
For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope.
Researchers have developed the first activity-based maps of the prefrontal cortex, challenging traditional descriptions of ...
The prefrontal cortex region of the human brain is responsible for a range of complex functions from decision-making to certain types of memory. When something goes wrong in this part of the brain, it ...
An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...
