LOS ANGELES - Fear is a complicated emotion, and scientists have recruited a scary laboratory aide to map out how the feeling is processed in the brain: the Brazilian salmon pink tarantula. Using video of the 8.7-inch-long arachnid, British researchers showed that the brain engages several different systems when evaluating threats. For instance, the part of the brain that engages when a threat is approaching is different than the part that is activated when a threat is receding, they reported recently in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The new research suggests that standard tests may overlook patients who have some consciousness, and that someday some kind of communication may be possible.

LONDON -- People playing computer games to train their brains might as well be playing Super Mario, new research suggests. In a six-week study, experts found people who played online games designed to improve their cognitive skills didn't get any smarter. Researchers recruited participants from viewers of the BBC's science show "Bang Goes the Theory." More than 8,600 people ages 18 to 60 were asked to play online brain games designed by the researchers to improve their memory, reasoning and other skills for at least 10 minutes a day, three times a week.
