... , peppermint, and pine, a new mapping of the nose's neural circuitry suggests a haphazard patchwork where the ... colleague Venkatesh N. Murthy recorded neural responses to several hundred distinct odors, ...
... were applied to individuals of the same race as the observers, the empathic neural responses increased; however, responses increased to a lesser extent when participants viewed the faces of the other ...
... to explore and treat the human brain. The technique has helped identify regions responsible for specific neural functions — for instance, the motor cortex and pleasure center — and has been used to ...
... stimuli. Their ultimate goal was to create a model that would describe not just neural response to the gratings, but to the complexities of natural scenes.
To test their model, they presented cats ...
... 'smell map' based on the chemical properties of odor molecules. This map, which can predict the neural response to an unfamiliar smell, supports the idea that universal laws governing smell are hard- ...
... way it recognizes musical scales. They reexamined numerous previously published studies that measured the neural response patterns to smells in a variety of lab animals – from fruit flies to rats – ...

"Our findings demonstrated that emotion regulation strategies can successfully curb physiological and neural responses associated with the expectation of reward," said Delgado. "This is a first step ...
... by another individual.
"This study is the first to examine in young children both the neural response to pain in others and the impact of someone causing pain to someone else," said Jean Decety, ...
... a male pheromone, a chemical sex attractant, also shifted subsequent neural responses to those stimulants, adjusting the response range to detect differences between higher levels of these odors.

... network that was induced specifically by song.
Across most of the network, song-specific neural responses were higher in the "breeding" females than the "non-breeding" ones. But the effects of ...
... we are faced with partisan decisions again and again.
The researchers also used neuroimaging to look at the neural responses of individuals who described themselves as partisan. They showed the ...
A new study found that they could decode neural responses to speech to find out not only what was said but who said it, making me wonder if 'The Man' isn't well on the way to reading our minds with ...
... in the March 4 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience.
"Our study shows that the changes we see in neural response in people with MD are probably driven by the lack of input to a population of neurons ...
... real flower. Previous research used only synthetic odors.
Just nine of the chemicals provoked a neural response. However, all nine had to be presented simultaneously for the moth to fly to the smell ...
... up from the cuticle--or outer body wall--and, when blown about by a passing wind, trigger a neural response. The fruit flies, on the other hand, use their antennae to detect a breeze and its general ...
