It’s why we’re prone to help others, even without the promise of payback (even if we expect something later). It’s our way of judging others and has contributed to our evolution and survival.
The discovery shows that smartphones are literally altering the way our minds work.
Researchers have created a new map of the human brain which shows where we organise words depending on their meaning—and it could help us read minds more accurately than ever. Read More >>
3D-printed gel folds almost exactly like a real baby human brain. Read More >>
Octopuses are easily one of my favourite animals in the ocean, because they have the intelligence to do things just like us.
We used to believe our brains couldn’t be changed. Now we believe they can – if we want it enough. But is that true?
Sufferers of frontotemporal dementia noted laughing at weird things many years before diagnosis.

Electrodes currently used to directly monitor the brain are solid and can damage the tissue they’re inserted into. But a new type of flexible electrode may change that.
So it can live forever in the cloud, gnawing away at imagined cables.
The brain is one of the most-studied — and most complex — things on the planet, so it can be hard to keep up with what the current state of neuroscience is.
Imagine being able to communicate with others through only your thoughts. No words, no signs are exchanged: only pure information travelling directly from one brain to another.
The brain is a very complicated chunk of stuff, with billions of individually simple neurons combining to give rise to very complex behaviour.
It's a few small steps for the patient but one giant leap for the field of research.
God knows how they found this out.
