Comparative studies on brain asymmetry date back to the 19th century but then largely
disappeared due to the assumption that lateralization is uniquely human. Since the …

Adolescence is a critical yet vulnerable period for developing behaviors important for mental
well-being. The existing literature suggests that physical activity (PA), exercise, and aerobic …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography allows perform virtual dissections of white matter
pathways in the living human brain. In 2002, Catani et al. published a method to reconstruct …

Background: Many studies using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) have demonstrated impaired
white matter integrity in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), with significant …

One of the major challenges of modern neuroscience is to define the complex pattern of
neural connections that underlie cognition and behaviour. Brain connections have been …

Few themes have been more central to neurological models of aphasia than the
disconnection paradigm and the role of the arcuate fasciculus. Introduced by luminaries of …

In this review paper we address whether deficits in reading (ie developmental dyslexia) are
rooted in neurobiological anomalies in white matter tracts. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) …

Despite transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is increasingly used in experimental
and clinical settings, its precise mechanisms of action remain largely unknown. At a …

The purpose of this article is to explain how the random walks of water molecules
undergoing diffusion in living tissue may be exploited to garner information on the white …

Intraoperative electrical brain mapping is currently the most reliable method to identify
eloquent cortical and subcortical structures at the individual level and to optimize the extent …
