But prior to this study, evidence was lacking for a connection between tertiary sulci and brain connectivity. The UC Berkeley study is one of few, all within the past few years, to provide such proof.

The central sulcus and the lateral sulcus split the brain into its four distinct lobes; frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital lobes. The frontal lobe hosts the motor cortex which is involved ...

In a study published May 19 in The Journal of Neuroscience, University of California, Berkeley, researchers show that in children and adolescents, the depths of some small grooves are correlated with ...

The patches are identified sulci in the lateral prefrontal and lateral parietal cortices of the left and right hemispheres of the brain. view more ...

Scientists have pinned down the region of the brain responsible for a key survival trait: our ability to comprehend a scene -- even one never previously encountered -- in a fraction of a second.

"Brain's insular cortex processes pain and drives learning from pain." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 16 May 2019. <www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2019 / 05 / 190516142849.htm>.

The insular cortex, folded deep within the lateral sulcus of the brain, is known to code for feelings about our own body.

Charlie's brain is convoluted into folded gyri and sulci like everybody else's, but not everywhere in the normal way. The central sulcus, the large deep groove that runs across the top of the head ...
