Just because the Drosophila brain has fewer neurons than mice and humans doesn’t mean it’s any less intricate. In fact, recent studies have revealed the mind-boggling complexity of fruit fly neural circuits. To tackle the challenge of modeling these circuits, scientists have developed a programmable ontology that goes beyond just mapping the anatomy of the […]
Just like newborn animals, young infants, chicks, and guppies have an innate ability to perceive approximate numbers of objects in their visual field. This is often referred to as their ‘number sense.’ However, scientists have questioned whether this number sense is truly innate or if it develops through calibration processes. To investigate this, researchers developed […]
Our memory is like a complex puzzle, and as we age, some pieces may start to go missing. The study delved into how the aging process impacts our ability to remember unfamiliar abstract figures and non-words. Using different memory strength levels, researchers found that older adults struggled more with correctly identifying new items and discriminating […]
