Image Research news | Oct 25, 2018 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers learn how the brain decides what to learn Neuroscientists know a lot about how our brains learn new things, but not much about how they choose what to focus on while they learn. Now, Stanford researchers have traced that ability to an unexpected place.
