A new study has identified the brain connectivity patterns that lead to cognitive difficulties in patients with schizophrenia, suggesting potential targets for therapeutic intervention in early ...

Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...

New research published in Imaging Neuroscience suggests that general intelligence is supported by the brain’s ability to maintain stable, efficient, and typical connectivity patterns. The study ...

It is a central question in neuroscience to understand how different regions of the brain interact, how strongly they "talk" to each other. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in ...

Brain connectivity was then assessed both between and within networks, including 13 cortical networks and three subcortical regions: the amygdala -- responsible for processing emotions and triggering ...

There is a natural decline in sociability as a result of aging influenced by brain changes, new research shows. “Our study suggests that age-related changes in the functional wiring of the brain may ...
