Neuroscientists have discovered how the brain distinguishes between visual motion occurring in the external world from that caused by the observer moving through it. Known as the 'motion-source ...

BEIJING -- Researchers from the Institute of Automation at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have revealed the intrinsic ...

This paper investigates the potential of ICR trajectories of the lower limb segments as a biomechanical measure for assessing human gait. To achieve this ... while sports cameras recorded motion in ...

Harvard researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...

Genetic variants linked to autism are associated with structural differences in neonatal white matter, particularly increased ...

A new Yale study provides a fuller picture of the genetic changes that shaped the evolution of the human brain, and how the process differed from the evolution of chimpanzees. For the study, published ...

Timing is crucial to many aspects of human performance ... Seventeen contiguous sagittal 7-mm-thick slices were acquired to provide coverage of the entire brain. Scanning was synchronized with ...

Is the human perceptual system sensitive to temporal segmentation during normal perception? If so, how does the brain accomplish this segmentation? These are two basic questions about perception ...

"A world in which human wages crash from AI — logically, necessarily — is a world in which productivity growth goes through the roof, and prices for goods and services crash to near zero ...

The scientists are proposing that the human ancestor, which had an extremely large brain bigger than that of modern humans, be called Homo juluensis. The designation of a newly identified species ...

While mice age differently than humans, this comparison roughly mirrors the differences between young adult and older adult human brains. Non-neuronal brain cells called tanycytes illuminated and ...
