Scientists Built a Working Brain—And Now the ‘Possibilities Are Endless,’ a Scientist Says

Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only ...

Gazing into the mind's eye with mice: How neuroscientists are seeing human vision more clearly

Despite the nursery rhyme about three blind mice, mouse eyesight is surprisingly sensitive. Studying how mice see has helped ...

Multiscale dynamical characterization of cortical brain states: from synchrony to asynchrony

We conclude that brain states are shaped by local circuit mechanisms, large-scale connectivity and neuromodulation. A unified multiscale theory of cortical dynamics is relevant not only for ...

State-dependent brain responsiveness, from local circuits to the whole brain

This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (statedependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level.
