A team of neuroscientists investigates communication pathways in the brain and predicts intelligence. A new study approach uses machine learning to improve our conceptual understanding of intelligence ...

For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?

Intelligence, therefore, depends on how the brain manages the division of labor across different networks and combines them as needed. Second, for the brain to manage this distributed processing, it ...
