A team of neurologists and biotechnicians at University Hospital and University of Tübingen, working with a colleague from Imperial College London, reports that brain complexity decreases during fetal ...

Earlier posts focused on the “easy problem” of consciousness—finding relationships between mental activity and the dynamic patterns measured with various brain imaging methods. This new post advances ...

You bite into an apple, you chew, the flavors flood your mouth, you swallow, and then you do it all over again. Eating is so effortless that you can do it while chatting, reading, watching TV, walking ...

The human brain and body are intricate systems that have been fine-tuned over millions of years to prioritize survival. One of the ways they achieve this is by favoring the status quo, or what is ...

Biologists have long puzzled over why organisms with similar numbers of protein-coding genes can differ so dramatically in nervous system complexity. New research points to a potential link between ...

There's a quiet irony at the center of modern neuroscience. The more precisely researchers can peer inside the brain, with ...

In this webinar, we will briefly introduce Vizgen’s Vizgen® MERSCOPE® Platform for spatial transcriptomics. Following this introduction, we will showcase the capabilities of MERSCOPE in deciphering ...

At the core of our resistance to change is a cognitive bias known as the status quo bias. This bias is a preference for the current state of affairs. The more familiar we are with a situation, the ...
