The human brain can concurrently support a wide range of advanced mental functions, including attention, memory and the processing of sensory stimuli. While past neuroscience studies have gathered ...

A new study of neural oscillations during varying stages of consciousness shows that anesthesia doesn’t just knock us out—it reorients brain signals.

For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?

How does the brain manage to catch the drift of a mumbled sentence or a flat, robotic voice? A new study led by researchers at Reichman University's Baruch Ivcher School of Psychology and the Dina ...
