Lateralization is an important aspect of the functional brain architecture for language and
other cognitive faculties. The molecular genetic basis of human brain lateralization is …

The inferior parietal lobule (IPL) is one of the most expanded cortical regions in humans
relative to other primates. It is also among the most structurally and functionally asymmetric …

Vertebrate brains display physiological and anatomical left-right differences, which are
related to hemispheric dominances for specific functions. Functional lateralizations likely rely …

For almost a century the field of brain and behavioural asymmetries has been dominated by
studies on humans, resting on the evidence that the anatomical structures underlying …

Modern neuroimaging technologies allow scientists to uncover interspecies differences and
similarities in hemispheric asymmetries that may shed light on the origin of brain asymmetry …

" Lateralized hemispheric function is guided by structural cerebral asymmetry" remains an
attractive hypothesis. It is plausible that genetically determined events lead to structural …

Many functions of the human brain are organized asymmetrically and are subject to strong
population biases. Some tasks, like speaking and making complex hand movements, exhibit …

The neocortex and striatum are topographically organized for sensory and motor functions.
While sensory and motor areas are lateralized for touch and motor control, respectively …

Hemispheric specialization influences stimulus processing and behavioural control,
affecting responses to relevant stimuli. However, most sensory input is irrelevant and must …

Lateralization, ie, the different functional roles played by the left and right sides of the brain,
is expressed in two main ways:(1) in single individuals, regardless of a common direction …
