Imagine waking up thirsty at night and having to reach for a glass of water in the dark. Without a clear view, your brain has to estimate where the glass is and where your hand is—a challenge that ...

A new study by neuroscientists shows that our brain deals with different forms of visual uncertainty during movements in distinct ways. Depending on the type of uncertainty, planning and execution of ...

This intricate mechanism highlights the macrophages' role as key integrators of immune, sensory, and metabolic functions in movement control. "The multiple roles of macrophages in the neural, ...

UD engineering assistant professor Joshua Cashaback receives NSF CAREER award to study the connection between decision-making and movement control From slamming on the brakes when the car in front of ...

Scientists have identified previously unknown neural modules in the brain that control movement and adapt during skill learning. Their findings challenge long-held ideas about how the brain organizes ...

Dopamine affects movement control, emotion regulation, and thinking skills. When dopamine levels are typical, they promote good health, while atypical levels can lead to health concerns. The above ...

A high-resolution brain interface records movement signals from the brain's surface, enabling real-time control performance similar to invasive implants without entering brain tissue. (Nanowerk ...
