Researchers have developed the most detailed 3D computational models of key brain regions, including the hippocampus and ...

Resembling a seahorse, as its name implies from the Greek words “hippos” (horse) and “kampus” (sea monster), the hippocampus ...

This article reports a useful set of findings on how electrophysiological response properties of neurons correlate with their position in the brain. The evidence currently remains incomplete, with ...

The anatomy of the brain involves key regions including the brain stem, cerebellum, lobes of the cerebral cortex, and specific glands (the pituitary, for example) needed to maintain life and health.

Published in Science Advances, the study demonstrates that targeted, painless electric impusles to the hippocampus and adjacent structures, a deep brain region implied in memory and spatial ...

The retina is a thin layer of tissue that lines the very back of the inside of the eyeball. The retina contains millions of cells that perceive light, color, and fine details in the things you see. A ...

The study showed the more the hippocampus—the brain's memory center—talked to the cortex—involved in long term memory storage—the more likely the person is to develop chronic pain.

This ability is central to category learning, and a growing literature indicates that the hippocampus indeed makes important contributions to this form of learning. Using a neural network model that ...
