    Neurological patterns in chronic criminals

    In recent decades, advancements in neuroscience have offered deep insights into the neurobiological foundations of behaviour, shedding light on the possible brain-based causes of chronic criminality. The study of how certain neural characteristics predispose individuals to deviant behaviour is a growing field known as neuro-criminology. This interdisciplinary domain merges neuroscience, psychology, and criminology to explore…

    The human brain consists of billions of neurons. These neurons are connected by synapses, where information is passed from one neuron to another. Understanding how neurons connect and communicate can reveal how the brain controls behaviour. However, reconstructing these connections for an entire brain has been challenging due to technological limitations. Recently, a team of…
