Researchers at University of Tsukuba have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes, such as ...

The evolution of the primate brain does not appear to have relied first on the autonomous growth of the frontal lobe, often associated with advanced cognitive functions. A study published in Science ...

A new study led by a Duke University scientist overturns a long-held idea about how primates, including humans, came to have such large and sophisticated brains. The research finds that the dramatic ...

Researchers have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes as the ever-changing neuronal ...

A Dartmouth study finds that the conscious perception of visual location occurs in the frontal lobes of the brain, rather than in the visual system in the back of the brain. The findings are published ...

The frontal lobe of the brain is vital to human consciousness, as well as functions that are uniquely human, such as spoken language. Frontal lobe damage can lead to a wide variety of symptoms The ...

Your frontal lobes are located right behind your forehead. They’re responsible for many vital functions, including voluntary movements and impulse control, among others. The cerebrum is the largest ...
