Unlock the mysteries of pain management by harnessing the power of fear, stress, and emotion. Discover how the brain's response to pain can be altered for more effective pain relief.

A second trial of a clot evacuation approach to remove a hematoma in spontaneous ICH has shown some encouraging results, despite a neutral primary endpoint.

The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen-like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

A study sheds light on how networks in the brain detect new information, offering insight into disorders like schizophrenia.

A new study shows that the cerebral cortex acts as a "memory machine," constantly detecting novel stimuli to refine its predictions of the future.

The illustration represents how sounds are encoded in the cerebral cortex, with neurons (at right) using "echoing" activity to track auditory stimuli to change and improve the brain's predictions of ...
