An Apgar score of 0–3 at 1 minute, and a score of 7–10 at 5 minutes, links to a higher risk of cerebral palsy, compared with having a score of 7–10 at 1 and 5 minutes.
To perceive the world, we rely on the cerebral cortex to assimilate sensory information that is relayed through the thalamus. Elly Nedivi, professor in the Picower Institute for Learning and ...
Cerebral angiography is a diagnostic test that uses an X-ray. It produces a cerebral angiogram, or an image that can help your doctor find blockages or other abnormalities in the blood vessels of ...
Well, it’s been years since I first learned about the prefrontal cortex, and every now and then I still have my California Condor moments. But for the most part, my decision making abilities and ...
The brain's cerebral cortex is made up of distinct regions involved in myriad processes, from sensory perception to cognitive functions like memory, attention, and decision-making. University of ...
