Error equation predicts brain’s ability to generalize Four statistical measurements of neural network geometry capture how well brains and artificial networks use what they already know to solve new problems, a study suggests.

A single equation governs the brain’s flexible behavior and predicts how well brains and artificial networks can generalize across tasks. #neuroskyence

Seeing and imagining activate some of the same brain cells By recording brain activity directly, scientists showed that imagining an object can revive parts of the neural pattern used to see it.

“… imagining an object reactivates some of the same neurons involved in seeing it in the first place, providing new insight into how mental imagery is produced in the brain.”

If fMRI Had Been Invented 100 Years Earlier - Neurofrontiers Română The seventh science advent prompt is asking to engage in a bit of speculation and imagine how our field would have looked like, should a discovery or invention entered the game 100 years earlier. The obvious choice for us is the poster child of neuroimaging, functional magnetic resonance imaging or fMRI, in brief. fMRI […]

What if fMRI had been invented 100 years earlier?

If childhood adversity is harmful, are its cognitive consequences always and only negative?

Maybe we need to question deficit models.

Greater childhood adversity was linked to faster implicit learning in our new study.
