Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

Researchers have investigated the impact of 10-min very light exercise on pupil size and prefrontal function. Their findings provide the first evidence that changes in pupil size during exercise can ...

Mild exercise like yoga improves mood and executive function, but the neural mechanisms were unclear. Using pupillometry, researchers found that pupil size changes during very light exercise predict ...

Different areas of the prefrontal cortex show very different effects on the time variability in decision-making activities Figure 1: The variability in the time it takes to make decisions tends to ...

A new study published in Neuropsychopharmacology sheds light on how heroin exposure alters brain function related to social interaction and drug craving. Researchers found that a specific group of ...
