SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Scientists from UC San Diego have published a study in the journal Nature detailing how brain wiring changes while learning. The study's findings are supported by the National ...

Memory sits at the center of how we learn, work, and maintain relationships. It shapes identity, supports decision-making, ...

No body, no dopamine, no problem. Scientists have successfully coached lab-grown brain tissue to solve a classic robotics challenge, proving that the will to learn is hardwired into our neurons.

How we learn to predict an outcome isn’t determined by how many times a cue and reward happen together. Instead, how much ...

Waiting between rewards may help the brain learn faster. New research shows timing, not repetition, drives stronger learning updates.

How do we learn new things? Neurobiologists using cutting-edge visualization techniques have revealed how changes across our synapses and neurons unfold. The findings depict how information is ...

Learning is often framed as effort plus discipline, yet 'How We Learn' by Stanislas Dehaene offers a far more precise explanation. Drawing from cognitive neuroscience, Dehaene explains how the brain ...

Scientists studying human development are working to improve equipment to learn how babies' brains develop. A team at ...

A Dartmouth study challenges the conventional view that the amygdala—the two-sided structure deep in the brain involved in ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Scientists discovered that two brain chemicals in honey bees can predict how fast they will learn, offering new insight into animal learning.
