Something fascinating happens every time we interact with another person in a meaningful way: Several of our biological signals start to synchronize. This has been shown for various brain waves and ...

A new study reveals that your heart rate slows down more when you make a visual mistake than when you see things correctly. This suggests our bodies physically react to perceptual errors in real-time.

Researchers discover a gut-brain-heart axis where the bacterial metabolite IAA regulates hypocretin neurons to control heart stiffness and blood pressure.

In a concert, members of the audience can respond emotionally to music, owing to their biological synchronization to the audio input. However, the mechanism underlying this biological response is ...

Study finds that interaction between strangers leads to higher levels of inter- and intra-brain synchronization compared to that in close acquaintances. We experience the world and connect with others ...
