The Sawtell Lab has mapped the neurons in a part of the elephantnose fish brain that senses electrical signals in detail, and found that how it filters out electrical noise is more complex than they thought.
To find buried prey, the elephantnose fish senses tiny electric fields while firing its own pulses. A brain map by the Sawtell lab shows how neurons filter them out.
Mice seek information for curiosity’s sake—and their desire for knowledge versus a payout is represented distinctly in the brain, new findings by Jennifer Bussell, PhD, suggest.
Neuroscientists are discovering that spending time with others may be a basic biological necessity, like need for food or water.
Columbia University team develops brain-controlled hearing aid with a maximum gain of 12 decibels.
El implante descodifica las ondas cerebrales generadas por estímulos sonoros específicos como hace el ‘zoom’ de una cámara
Groundbreaking technology decodes a user’s brain activity to identify which voice they want to follow in a crowded room, then amplifies that conversation
Scientists have developed an artificial hearing system that harnesses the brain's ability to amplify certain sounds while suppressing others. It could lead to better hearing aids.
At a recent School of the Arts event, Daphna Shohamy and Sarah Ruhl share how memory affects their work.
Daphna Shohamy and other leading neuroscientists discuss the latest research on memory, the mind and brain health with PBS South Florida.
