The frequent occurrence of a pattern in a network, however, is not strictly correlated with a biological function. Network topologies reflect evolutionary origins and therefore the selection of ...

Patterns of brain connectivity take us a step closer to understanding the key principles of cognition. The patterns created by neurons in the brain can be used to shine a light on how the brain ...

Neuroscientists have identified face-recognition areas based on what parts of the brain they link to. For more than a decade, neuroscientists have known that many of the cells in a brain region called ...

A new study shows that autism symptom severity, rather than a formal diagnosis, aligns with shared brain-connectivity patterns across children diagnosed with autism or ADHD.

December 29, 2011 — A study of relatively healthy elderly adults found that those with diets rich in several vitamins or omega-3 fatty acids had better cognitive function and less brain atrophy ...

Interpolation is essential to most studies of spatial patterns in ecology. However, there has been a lack of quantitative techniques for interpolation of spatial data. This paper introduces a new ...

Following the course of lung function in treatment-naïve patients, researchers found that lung function decline does not accelerate prior to mechanical ventilation. Patterns in the decline of lung ...

A database, collecting and classifying tile-like patterns in biology, aims to be a resource and research catalyst. The human ...

For more than a decade, neuroscientists have known that many of the cells in a brain region called the fusiform gyrus specialise in recognising faces. However, those cells don't act alone: They need ...
