Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a method for identifying areas of high neural activity by detecting blood oxygenation level-dependent signals (BOLD signals) rather than directly ...

The activity of the human brain is known to be closely connected to other physiological signals, such as heart rate and breathing. A study by researchers at the University of California Los Angeles ...

Restoring communication Jerry Tang and colleagues at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a language decoder that translates brain activity data from functional MRI scans into a continuous ...

How do scientists peer into the brain to better understand what is happening, where, and why? By taking advantage of the brain’s electromagnetic properties or by sending radioactive markers into the ...
