Cerebral lateralization is the portioning of the cognitive functions between the two cerebral
hemispheres. Several factors, like embryological manipulations, light exposure, health …

Vertebrate ancestors had extreme asymmetry of the CNS, largely imposed by bodily
asymmetry. In the zebrafish a key asymmetry is that of the habenulae. Their major outflow on …

Left/right asymmetric features of animals are either randomly distributed on either the left or
right side within a population (“antisymmetries”) or found stereotypically on one particular …

Left–right asymmetries have likely evolved to make optimal use of bilaterian nervous
systems; however, little is known about the synaptic and circuit mechanisms that support …

The left-right (LR) asymmetry of visceral organs is fundamental to their function and position
within the body. Over the past decade or so, the molecular mechanisms underlying the …

Embryonic morphogenesis occurs along three orthogonal axes. While the patterning of the
anterior‐posterior and dorsal‐ventral axes has been increasingly well‐characterized, the left …

The habenulae are part of an evolutionary conserved conduction system that connects the
limbic forebrain areas with midbrain structures and is implicated in important functions such …

The habenulae are evolutionarily conserved bilateral nuclei in the epithalamus that relay
input from the forebrain to the ventral midbrain. In zebrafish, the habenulae display left-right …

The habenulae are part of an evolutionarily highly conserved limbic-system conduction
pathway that connects telencephalic nuclei to the interpeduncular nucleus (IPN) of the …

Brain laterality has been observed in animals and humans structurally, functionally, and
behaviorally. MRI and CT scans have revealed pathological and normal brain asymmetry. A …
