Learning and remembering movement Posted: 09 Jun 2022 02:36 PM PDT Researchers examining the brain at a single-neuron level found that computation happens not just in the interaction between neurons, but within each individual neuron. Each of these cells, it turns out, is not a simple switch, but a complicated calculating machine. This discovery promises changes not only to our understanding of how the brain works, but better understanding of conditions ranging from Parkinson's disease to autism. The findings are also expected to advance machine learning, offering inspiration for new architectures. |
Why people don't view the world the same way others do Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:20 AM PDT Why are we so sure that the way we see people, situations and politics is accurate, and the way other people see them is foolishly wrong? The answer, according to new research lies in a region of the brain he calls the 'gestalt cortex,' which helps people make sense of information that is ambiguous or incomplete -- and dismiss alternative interpretations. |
Recurring brain tumors shaped by genetic evolution and microenvironment Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:18 AM PDT Researchers have discovered that infiltrating gliomas, a common brain and spinal cord tumor, are shaped by their genetic evolution and microenvironment, a finding that could lead to more targeted treatments. |
