A team of neuroscientists has revealed why when we lie or cheat it is easier for us to continue lying than to offer the truth.

The patient had not felt his fingers for a decade. The chip manages to directly stimulate the neurons responsible for feeling the fingers.

It seems so: half of the time they spend resting goes into the REM phase, which makes the brain work more.

This discovery sheds light on the neurobiological origins of writing and reading in humans.

A study carried out by researchers from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario (Canada) and the National University of Ireland in Galway (Ireland) and which has had about 28,000 participants has concluded that those people who follow a healthy diet have a healthy stronger than those who do not watch their diet.

Do all addictions generate similar reactions in our brain?

People who are distracted by a fly and can barely keep their attention on one thing can blame a cluster of neurons in the upper parietal lobe.

The discovery will improve understanding of brain diseases such as depression, schizophrenia or Alzheimer's disease.
