Rat Study Suggests Brains Stores Information in Chunks June 19, 2012. A rat navigating a maze keeps track of where it’s been and where it’s going using the area of the brain called the hippocampus and updates its path eight times a second, say researchers from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute and the University of Minnesota in a study published online June 17 by the journal Nature Neuroscience.  | |

New Insight on How the Brain Makes Decisions March 11, 2010. Replaying recent events in the area of the brain called the hippocampus may have less to do with creating long-term memories, as scientists have suspected, than with an active decision-making process, suggests a new study by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Minnesota Medical School. Insights from these neural mechanisms may be useful for improving autonomous navigation systems | |
