New e-tattoos can serve as the sensors for electroencephalography (EEG), a medical test that measures the brain's electrical activity.

Deciphering how neurons talk to each other by reading the brain’s electrical activity has given scientists insights into memory and conditions like epilepsy and Alzheimer’s.

Electroconvulsive therapy often evokes inaccurate images of seizing bodies and smoking ears. Better understanding of how it reduces depression symptoms can illuminate new ways to treat mental illness.

It’s a powerful antidepressant, but science needs more answers on out-of-body experiences and other “dissociative effects,” says the first author Fangyun Tian.

Researchers have learned that fentanyl produces a specific EEG signature, which could allow clinicians to monitor its effects to enable safer, more personalized administration during and after surgery.

Neurotechnology could mean law firms soon track ‘billable units of attention’ rather than billable hours.

Children with dyslexia seem to find it more difficult to judge the direction of moving dots - this could explain why reading is also more challenging.

Fetal brains are changing rapidly over the course of pregnancy, but so are the brains of mothers-to-be. Neuroscience research shows one way worry can start taking hold – and a simple way to help.

Cognitive neuroscientists use brain imaging and behavioral economic games to investigate people's sense of fairness. They find it's common to take care of yourself before looking out for others.
