A layer deep in the cerebral cortex, which is the innermost layer of the mammalian brain, has recently been found to play a ...

One of the defining features of humans is our brain's remarkable capacity for language, planning, memory, creativity, and more. These abilities stem not just from our large brain size, but also from ...

The prefrontal cortex -- an area of the brain responsible for executive functions, such as planning, working memory, and impulse control -- has long been implicated in the pathophysiology of ...

Obtaining prefrontal cortex biopsies during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in living patients does not increase the risk of adverse events or cognitive decline compared to standard DBS ...

Individuals with a strong affinity for groove rhythm (GR), characterized by its ability to induce a sense of groove, exhibited heightened activation of executive function in the prefrontal cortex ...

Obtaining prefrontal cortex biopsies during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in living patients does not increase the risk of adverse events or cognitive decline compared to standard DBS ...

Prefrontal cortex biopsies taken for research purposes during deep brain stimulation procedures appear to be safe, new ...
