For years, MIT scientists have been studying how brain circuits play a role in decision-making. New research explains how motivation declines with age.
Zebrafish models have been widely used to study the biology of vertebrates, including humans. Recent research has enabled scientists to develop a new technique to accurately capture 3D imaging of the zebrafish brain with implications of human neurological disorders.
The hippocampus is part of the limbic system and is responsible for storing short-term memory into long-term memory, as well as spatial memory which enables navigation.
Scientists have proved that just like humans and animals, even plants have brains. A recent study shows that a group of cells act as the brains of plants responsible for decision-making during germination.
An amphious is not actually a fish, but it is thought as a brainless and fishless fish. Meanwhile, it gives an incredible clue to the brain evolution of vertebrates.
