Predicting how molecular changes affect the brain’s overall activity is a major challenge in neuroscience. Many deep questions about the brain can only be understood by looking at several layers of ...

A new study reveals that the human brain processes information very slowly, at a rate of just 10 bits per second. Despite having 85 billion neurons capable of faster processing, the brain filters ...

Imagine a future where your phone, computer or even a tiny wearable device can think and learn like the human brain—processing information faster, smarter and using less energy. A new approach ...

The universe's first magnetic fields may have been much weaker than we first imagined — and were roughly equivalent to the strength of the magnetic activity within the human brain, according to a new ...
