Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Recent research has developed a novel ...

Injury to the cerebral cortex region of the brain due to traumatic brain injury (TBI), surgical resection for cancer, epilepsy, and stroke can damage cognitive function, impair motor skills, and ...

Traumatic brain injury can significantly alter a person's identity and personality when prefrontal cortex damage is involved, leading to behavioural and emotional dysregulation.

Next, they devised a system that would deliver a precisely timed pulse of electricity to the lateral temporal cortex, a brain area behind the ear that is involved in encoding memory. "It would ...

Cedars-Sinai investigators found a new way to control prosthetic devices using brain signals. Their preclinical findings, if ...

Displayed is the cortical thickness for each group studied (Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury and healthy aging) after mapping each participant's cortical surface to an atlas average ...

HAMILTON: Ultimately, Dosenbach says this led to a new map of the motor cortex. DOSENBACH: There's two interleaved systems. So it's a checkerboard pattern. It's specific body parts.

The new view of primary motor cortex may help explain how the brain solves a difficult problem, Strick says. "Even simple movements require nuanced control of all organ systems," he says.

Motor cortex causally contributes to vocabulary translation following sensorimotor-enriched training. The Journal of Neuroscience, 2021; JN-RM-2249-20 DOI: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2249-20.2021 ...
