Adults with a history of childhood trauma show measurable differences in brain structure and function, according to new research. The study found smaller surface area and volume in specific cortical ...

A new study published in The Journal of Neuroscience offers insight into how small grooves in the brain’s surface — known as tertiary sulci — might help explain individual differences in reasoning ...

Calcarine sulcus were measured using sagittal sections, at the mid-posterior location just above MTOG (Figure 3C and D). Medial temporal occipital gyrus was measured using axial slices close to the ...

Abstract: This paper describes automatic procedures for extracting sulcal and gyral patterns from magnetic resonance (MR) images of the human brain. Specifically, the authors present three algorithms ...

According mostly to rodent studies, exercise also spurs neurogenesis, which takes place deep within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus (May 2002 news; Sep 2019 news). This well of newborn neurons is ...

The research, published in Neuron, found that a region in the brain known as the fusiform gyrus—located behind one's temples, on the underside of the brain's temporal lobe—is involved in ...

Objective To provide a critical review of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) by considering the range of clinical presentations, neuropathology and the strength of evidence for CTE as a distinct ...
