Researchers have provided new insight into the brain mechanisms underlying a condition that causes reading and writing difficulties. Researchers have provided new insight into the brain mechanisms ...

A neuroscientist has proposed a new, ground-breaking explanation for the process of 'habituation,' which allows the brain to filter out significant environmental stimuli from the insignificant, and ...

Stimuli. The stimuli are yellow circles, as shown on the left of the picture, that flash on and off for different durations. A schematic of the on (peaks) and off (troughs) states for both stimuli are ...

Electrical reexcitation of rat papillary muscle after a short interval (50 to 80 milliseconds) results in action potentials with no significant mechanical counterpart. The mechanical response recovers ...
