Understanding how the human brain represents the information picked up by the senses is a longstanding objective of ...

Once in the hippocampus, memories and learning can be transmitted to different parts of the brain and retrieved whenever needed (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). Furthermore, Suzuki presented a landmark ...

A new brain imaging study has found that people who regularly use cannabis show reduced spontaneous activity in a key motor control region of the brain. While their actual task performance did not ...

Intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) provide people with paralysis a means to control devices with signals decoded from brain activity. Despite recent impressive advances, these devices ...

The cerebral cortex, also known as gray matter, is your brain’s outermost layer and is located above the cerebrum. Learn more about its vital functions.

In the brain's secondary motor cortex, researchers have discovered two distinct maps that play a crucial role in spatial planning and navigation. The research, led by Dr. Jeffrey Erlich, Group Leader ...

The third group in the Renesas RA8 series of MCUs, RA8T1 devices offer real-time control of motors and inverters used in industrial, building, and home automation. Like other RA8 microcontrollers, the ...

The motor cortex in the brain is responsible for these movements, therefore also playing a role in vision. The temporal and occipital lobes share important interactions, as well.

The idea of a region of motor cortex that roughly mirrored the head-to-toe alignment of the human body could no longer prevail. We put forward evidence for our views in a recent Nature article.

While we sleep, our brains process our daily actions to create motor memory, which makes physical acts such as throwing a basketball subconscious.
