Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

We investigated how our brains process language during real-life conversations. Specifically, we wanted to understand which brain regions become active when we're speaking and listening, and how these ...

Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...

Researchers Matthew Golub, Belle Liu, and Jacob Sacks at the Paul G. Allen School for Computer Science & Engineering, have ...

However, there's evidence that parts of the brain involved in language, like the dorsal anterior temporal lobe (ATL), are also involved in this process—dementia patients with ATL damage, for example, ...

Dialogue with adults may lead to stronger pathways between two brain regions. Adults who hold back-and-forth conversations with young children rather than just talking to them may be helping to ...

In a new article appearing in the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, led by Cory Shain and Hope Kean, explore how the human brain shows ...
