Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...

The brain’s wiring forms a unique fingerprint that reveals how we think, remember, and make decisions. A new study offers the ...

It is a central question in neuroscience to understand how different regions of the brain interact, how strongly they "talk" to each other. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in ...

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a debilitating condition that affects more than 246 million people worldwide, yet scientists have struggled to identify consistent brain markers that could improve ...

Brain scans using functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed that children with autism spectrum disorder exhibit marked differences in the microstructure of white matter and functional ...

Arousal fluctuates continuously during wakefulness, yet how these moment-to-moment variations shape large-scale functional connectivity (FC) remains unclear. Here, we combined 7T fMRI with concurrent ...

A study led by Pompeu Fabra University reveals which brain mechanisms allow psychosis to remit. The results of this pioneering research could have important clinical implications for exploring new ...

Researchers find that parents show patterns of brain connectivity that oppose age-related changes. Parents' brains may be getting an unexpected benefit from raising children: protection against some ...

A study published June 25 in the American Journal of Psychiatry provides new insights into a long-standing question in psychiatric research: What is the underlying neurobiological mechanism of ...

New research suggests that how well adolescents sleep could influence how their brains function—and might even help predict whether they develop behavioral problems down the line. In a large study ...
