Today (July 25), research published in Science provides the first clues regarding the mechanism for creating such faux memories in the brain, demonstrating that the manipulation of a specific subset ...

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from "The Matrix," scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date—a diagram of the wiring connecting 84,000 neurons as they fire off messages.

Scientists have identified the neural circuitry responsible for assigning emotional value—positive or negative—to social ...
