Distributed networks of brain areas interact with one another ... Our results show that learning induces an autonomy of sensorimotor systems and that the release of cognitive control hubs in ...

But what if the animal doesn't have a brain? Presumably, most of the behaviors we've looked at require at least some sort of centralized nervous system. But there are a lot of species, including ...

Even without a central brain, jellyfish ... to avoid obstacles through associative learning, a process through which organisms form mental connections between sensory stimulations and behaviors.

This associative memory makes us feel afraid ... and smells of burning materials from damaged cars. The brain then integrates these sensory signals as a highly abstract form -- the context ...

This process involves the “representation” of the immune system in the brain and the integration of this information with ...

they demonstrated that their device could simulate associative learning. Related Study links adult-born neurons with sensory learning New electronics mimic brain's low-power computing abilities ...

which connect distant brain regions. These neural "shortcuts" allow associative areas to quickly access information processed by sensory regions. Thanks to these connectome-based models ...

Even when we create language, we do so via muscle contractions. The brain is a sensorimotor system. Sensor and movement data are the inputs, movement is the output. This is the biggest and most ...

To control our behaviour, the brain must be able ... researchers to measure how well associative learning works. They found that the ability to associate sensory stimuli was less pronounced ...

A recent study in Frontiers in Psychology monitored brain activity in students taking ... that in tasks that really lock the motor and sensory systems together, such as in handwriting, there ...
