Understanding how the brain learns and applies rules is the key to unraveling the neural basis of flexible behavior. A new study from the University of Toyama, Japan, reveals that our ability to ...

Every day, the brain takes in far more experiences than it will ever store. Most dissolve within hours. A few persist for decades. Until now, scientists had only a rough sketch of how the brain makes ...

Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...
