Leveraging start-up "dummy scans," which are typically discarded in imaging analyses, can shorten an experiment's length and make data collection more efficient, a new study reveals.

New results suggest the disease progresses differently in women, but we need more basic science to unpack the mechanisms involved.

Fiser's work taught me how to think about grounding computational models in biologically plausible implementations.

The NIH-sponsored effort aims to help incentivize scientists to share data. But many barriers to the widespread adoption of useful data-sharing remain.

Science is built on trust. What happens when someone destroys it?

A detailed look at a "pregnant brain" highlights a need to investigate the neural alterations that occur during a transition experienced by nearly 140 million people worldwide each year.

The field is grappling with whether to modify the long-standing theory of reward prediction error-or abandon it entirely.
