Brain imaging offers a way to examine how different regions of the brain participate in cognitive function”— Dr.
As you are reading these words, certain regions of your brain are displaying a flurry of millisecond-fast electrical activity. Visualizing and measuring this electrical activity is crucial to ...
Tools that allow neuroscientists to record and quantify functional activity within the living brain are in great demand. Traditionally, researchers have used techniques such as functional magnetic ...
Making a living brain transparent and watching its neurons fire without disturbing their function—sounds like science fiction ...
(Science Photo Library/Canva) Exercise works wonders throughout the human body, including the brain. Research suggests an ...
A growing body of researchers is utilizing optical imaging to monitor activity in the brain. One type of optical imaging, two-photon calcium imaging, has been widely adopted for its ability to record ...
For the first time, researchers have prospectively demonstrated a mechanistic link between brain emotional activity and the heart in individuals with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). On ...
How does the brain produce behavior? Studying the brain during behavior is most informative when the animal is free to interact with its environment in any way it chooses. This requires small ...
Tools for optical imaging of brain activity in freely moving animals have considerable potential for expanding the scientific understanding of the brain. However, existing technologies for imaging ...
