Dissociating distinct cortical networks associated with subregions of the human medial temporal lobe using precision neuroimaging

Using individualized neuroimaging, Reznik et al. find that different subregions of the human memory system are associated with at least three distributed cortical networks. Comparison to non-human primate connectivity data suggests that some anatomical pathways are potentially not present in humans, some are preserved, and some are potentially new.

Scientists discover anatomical changes in the brains of the newly sighted

AI SummaryRecent research from MIT Professor Pawan Sinha reveals that there is a longer window of brain plasticity for visual tasks than previously believed, as older children with congenital cataracts can learn visual skills such as recognizing faces and distinguishing objects from a background after their sight is restored through surgery. The researchers have also… Continue reading Scientists discover anatomical changes in the brains of the newly sighted
