Criticality is the singular state of complex systems poised at the brink of a phase transition
between order and randomness. Such systems display remarkable information-processing …

The human brain undergoes a prolonged period of cortical development that spans multiple
decades. During childhood and adolescence, cortical development progresses from lower …

The anatomy of the brain necessarily constrains its function, but precisely how remains
unclear. The classical and dominant paradigm in neuroscience is that neuronal dynamics …

Neurotransmitter receptors support the propagation of signals in the human brain. How
receptor systems are situated within macro-scale neuroanatomy and how they shape …

The anatomy of the mammalian visual system, from the retina to the neocortex, is organized
hierarchically. However, direct observation of cellular-level functional interactions across this …

Imaging technologies are increasingly used to generate high-resolution reference maps of
brain structure and function. Comparing experimentally generated maps to these reference …

Structure–function relationships are a fundamental principle of many naturally occurring
systems. However, network neuroscience research suggests that there is an imperfect link …

This paper formulates the action of psychedelics by integrating the free-energy principle and
entropic brain hypothesis. We call this formulation relaxed beliefs under psychedelics …

Human brain organoids replicate much of the cellular diversity and developmental anatomy
of the human brain. However, the physiology of neuronal circuits within organoids remains …

The rapid and coordinated propagation of neural activity across the brain provides the
foundation for complex behavior and cognition. Technical advances across neuroscience …
