A neural probe has been used to capture the activity of large populations of single neurons as people are speaking or listening, providing detailed insights into how the brain encodes specific ...
The six anatomical layers of the mammalian brain cortex show distinct patterns of electrical activity which are consistent throughout the entire cortex and across several animal species, including ...
On neuroscience’s big stage Nov. 15, MIT Professor Earl K. Miller will propose that thought and consciousness emerge from the fast and flexible organization of the cortex produced by the analog ...
Researchers launch Neuropixels Opto, integrating electrophysiology and optogenetics on a single hair-thin probe.

How the distinctive folds in the brain cortex, seen in humans, whales, other animals, form
One of the defining features of humans is our brain's remarkable capacity for language, planning, memory, creativity, and more. These abilities stem not just from our large brain size, but also from ...
Researchers have developed a new approach for describing the shape of the cerebral cortex, and provide evidence that cortices across mammalian species resemble a universal, fractal pattern.

The brain’s sensory cortex uses a Voronoi diagram to organize touch signals — the same math cities use to design water networks
When a mouse sweeps a single whisker across a textured surface, a tight cluster of neurons in its brain lights up within milliseconds. That cluster sits inside a grid of cortical columns, each one ...
