AI's struggle with continuous learning reveals a critical gap between artificial and human cognitive processes.

A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Virginia Tech's Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC has for the first time identified specific patterns of brain chemical activity that predict ...

According to a new study led by Harvard researchers in Nature Neuroscience, this so-called "learning machine" speaks in two different codes—one for recently-acquired learned movements and another for ...

The basal ganglia are a group of interconnected structures, located in the midbrain below the cerebral cortex, that play a crucial role in motor control, reward processing, and cognition. This region ...

The ability to learn by watching others interact had previously only been documented in humans, making macaws just the second species to demonstrate this ability (humans being the first). A captive ...
