Researchers from four academic neurosurgical centers in Japan found that the parietooccipital fissure, which divides the temporal, occipital, and parietal lobes of the brain, acts as an obstacle that ...

Charlottesville, VA (December 14, 2021). Researchers from four academic neurosurgical centers in Japan found that the parietooccipital fissure, which divides the temporal, occipital, and parietal ...

The clinical syndrome produced by a stroke is determined by the artery or arteries that are occluded. Blood is supplied to the brain by two major sets of arteries, the anterior and posterior ...

A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...

Temporal lobe epilepsy, which results in recurring seizures and cognitive dysfunction, is associated with premature aging of ...

The temporal lobe is part of the cerebral cortex. It plays a role in memory, enables people to process sound and vision, and is crucial for recognizing objects and language. Dysfunction in the ...

We regularly find ourselves in situations in which we talk to others. We talk to friends in a different way than we do to strangers. One important skill for this is not just understanding what the ...

Clearing out “aged” brain cells dramatically reduced seizures and restored memory in a new epilepsy study.

The human language system appears to recruit a broad network of frontal and temporal brain regions. Even though different aspects of language processing have by now been confidently apportioned to ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers examine neural networks in the left language-dominant hemisphere responsible for semantic integration using intracranial recordings in ...
