The neuroscience of free will encompasses two main fields of study: volition and agency. Volition, the study of voluntary actions, is difficult to define. [citation needed] If human actions are considered as lying along a spectrum based on conscious involvement in initiating the actions, then reflexes would be on one end, and fully voluntary actions would be on the other.

It is widely used in behavioral neuroscience to study spatial learning and memory. [1] It enables learning, memory, and spatial working to be studied with great accuracy, and can also be used to assess damage to particular cortical regions of the brain.
The Moser research environment was established in 1996 as the neuroscience research group and laboratory of the Mosers at the Department of Psychology, NTNU.

Improvement to cognitive performance caused by exercise could last for 24 hours, a new study shows. Scientists also linked getting 6 or more hours of sleep to better memory test scores the next day.
Some focus on the human brain, others on non-human. As the number of databases that seek to disseminate information about the structure, development and function of the brain has grown, so has the need to collate these resources themselves. As a result, there now exist databases of neuroscience databases, some of which reach over 3000 entries. [1]
The International Brain Laboratory (IBL) is a collaborative research group that aims to develop the first global model of decision making in mice. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In its first phase, IBL members are recording 100,000's of neurons across virtually all brain structures in mice performing the very same decision.
Cerf is well known for his research on consciousness and projecting people's thoughts and dreams directly from their brain, [32] [33] [34] his research on free will, [35] his ideas on the future of humans [36] [37] and the ability to hack our brains, and for his work in the neuroscience in marketing.
