Researchers examined anatomy of neurons from humans, mice and fruit flies. They discovered that the cellular structure of the brain is at a critical point, poised between two phases. New insights ...

How can a brain as sophisticated as ours arise from a single cell? This question, long at the heart of neuroscience research, ...

Using MRI scans of almost 1,000 Dutch people, researchers show that there is indeed a connection between brain structure and ideology. However, the connection is smaller than expected. Nevertheless, ...

Recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence have uncovered surprising geometric structures within large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT. These findings offer a new perspective on how these ...

A recent study published in the Journal of Sleep Research suggests that people who frequently experience lucid dreams have specific physical network patterns in their brains. Scientists found that the ...

When a magnet is heated up, it reaches a critical point where it loses magnetization. Called “criticality,” this point of high complexity is reached when a physical object is transitioning smoothly ...
