In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.

Researchers Dr. Yuval Hart and Oded Wertheimer from the Psychology department and the Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Science (ELSC) at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem have developed a new ...

Researchers are training neural networks to make decisions more like humans would. This science of human decision-making is only just being applied to machine learning, but developing a neural network ...

Artificial intelligence terminology continues to expand as researchers and companies develop new systems, prompting the need ...

“Neural networks are currently the most powerful tools in artificial intelligence,” said Sebastian Wetzel, a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. “When we scale them up to ...

Scientists propose a new way of implementing a neural network with an optical system which could make machine learning more sustainable in the future. The researchers at the Max Planck Institute for ...

Past psychology and behavioral science studies have identified various ways in which people's acquisition of new knowledge can be disrupted. One of these, known as interference, occurs when humans are ...

By elucidating the neural basis of individual differences in fear plasticity, this study highlights the central role of brain states in stress adaptation. "Our work provides new insights into arousal ...

Social memory - the ability to recognize familiar individuals and distinguish them from strangers - is fundamental to social cognition. Deficits in social memory are hallmarks of multiple ...
