The human brain is generally anatomically symmetrical, boasting mirror-like brain regions in
the left and right hemispheres. Despite this symmetry, fine-scale structural asymmetries are …

Left–right hemispheric asymmetry is an important aspect of healthy brain organization for
many functions including language, and it can be altered in cognitive and psychiatric …

Left-right laterality is an important aspect of human–and in fact all vertebrate–brain
organization for which the genetic basis is poorly understood. Using RNA sequencing data …

The human nervous system consists of seemingly symmetric left and right halves. However,
closer observation of the brain reveals anatomical and functional lateralization. Defects in …

The human cerebral hemispheres show a left–right asymmetrical torque pattern, which has
been claimed to be absent in chimpanzees. The functional significance and developmental …

▪ Abstract A distinctive and essential feature of the vertebrate body is a pronounced left-right
asymmetry of internal organs and the central nervous system. Remarkably, the direction of …

Hemispheric asymmetry is a cardinal feature of human brain organization. Altered brain
asymmetry has also been linked to some cognitive and neuropsychiatric disorders. Here, 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 …

Left–right asymmetry is a phenomenon that has a broad appeal—to anatomists,
developmental biologists and evolutionary biologists—because it is a morphological feature …

Popular culture, from movies, advertising, to self-help books, is captivated by left-brain/right-
brain differences and how these might influence our personalities, moods, and capabilities …
