Neuroscientists and medical researchers now have a wide range of imaging techniques to study the brain and its activity. One ...

Functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, gives researchers a powerful way to study brain activity. But the scans can ...

An intense international effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has culminated in an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner that records up to ...

Jerry Tang (left) and Alex Huth (right) have demonstrated an AI-based tool that can translate a person’s thoughts into continuous text, without requiring the person to comprehend spoken words. Here ...

Canadian Neuroscientists Jacqueline Snow et al propose a new method of making brain scanning studies a bit more realistic. Typically, in an fMRI or other neuroimaging study, any visual stimuli shown ...

In a new study, investigators from McLean Hospital (a member of Mass General Brigham), Harvard Medical School and the National Institute on Drug Abuse – Intramural Research Program (NIDA-IRP) ...

For Northwestern's setup, a wooden frame surrounds the subject on the MRI table. The load-cell sensor is mounted to the wood frame. The interface is bound to the fiberglass cast on the subject's ...

Researchers found found that as people's arousal levels dwindle during an fMRI, such as if they become more relaxed and sleepy, resulting changes in breathing and heart rates alter blood oxygen levels ...

Brain scans reveal that elevated activity in the emotion-processing center is tied to a person’s history of recurrent depression, rather than their current mood. The large study, published in ...

A new study of nearly 1,200 human brains has confirmed that the brain runs a dedicated language network continuously, not just when someone is reading or speaking — and that this network can be ...
