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 ...

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 ...

Most people rarely think about how they breathe unless experiencing respiratory distress. Yet emerging research suggests that the pathway through which we inhale and exhale – nose versus mouth – ...

Genetic susceptibility to neurodevelopmental conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, and ADHD can be linked, in part, to ...

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 ...

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 ...
