Whether the brain responds to an external stimulus or not depends significantly on the balance between areas of excitation and inhibition in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Synaptic connections in the ...

This paper represents a valuable contribution to our understanding of how LFP oscillations and beta band coordination between the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of rats may relate to learning.

In this guide to the canine adolescent years, Christopher Pachel, DVM, DACVB, CABC (IAABC), breaks down this critical phase—from hormones to the prefrontal cortex—based on his 2026 VMX session in ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...

Attention can feel like a fragile thing, especially when your brain struggles to sort signal from noise. Every second, your ...

Throughout the brain's cortex, neurons are arranged in six distinctive layers, which can be readily seen with a microscope. A team of MIT neuroscientists has now found that these layers also show ...
