The study suggests that targeted brain stimulation could help bridge this gap. Academic learning has profound implications ...

A new study reveals how the brain responds to mental exhaustion, identifying two key regions—the right insula and the ...

Scientists from the Lieber Institute for Brain Development sought to define the laminar topography of gene expression in the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), a brain area implicated in a ...

A team of researchers from Johns Hopkins Medical Campus, working with medical research company 10x Genomics has used a spatial gene expression technology to further define the six-layered human ...

Pinner A., Mueller T., Alganem K., McCullumsmith R., and Meador-Woodruff J. (in press). Protein expression of prenyltransferase subunits in postmortem schizophrenia dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.

Samples that passed quality-control measures included 22 blocks of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (from eight boys and three girls in each group), 5 blocks of posterior superior temporal cortex (2 ...

Increasing prefrontal cortex activity with brain stimulation reduces aggressive intent in human adults, according to new research published in JNeurosci. This finding extends previous ...

“Today, we view the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex as the core component of human identity, but still we don’t know what makes this unique in humans and distinguishes us from other primate species.” ...

The other area of the prefrontal cortex that the researchers looked at, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, would be expected "to be involved in many forms of explicit, deliberative self-control ...

The interaction between these two brain regions – the ventral medial prefrontal cortex and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex – is stronger for people who show greater self control with either ...
