Emotion, memories and behaviour emerge from the coordinated activities of regions
connected by the limbic system. Here, we propose an update of the limbic model based on …

The uncinate fasciculus is a bidirectional, long-range white matter tract that connects lateral
orbitofrontal cortex and Brodmann area 10 with the anterior temporal lobes. Although …

Introduction Sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm are mediated by complex, yet still not fully
understood, interactions of the somatic and autonomic nervous systems operating at the …

Advances in our understanding of sensory-motor integration suggest a unique role of the
frontal lobe circuits in cognition and behaviour. Long-range afferent connections convey …

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious healthcare problem, and this report is a selective
review of recent findings on the epidemiology, pathophysiology and neuropsychological …

The greater expansion of the frontal lobes along the phylogeny scale has been interpreted
as the signature of evolutionary changes underlying higher cognitive abilities in humans …

Background The inferior temporal gyrus (ITG) is known to be involved in high-cognitive
functions, including visual and language comprehensions and emotion regulation. A …

Last year was the 150th anniversary of Paul Broca's landmark case report on speech
disorder that paved the way for subsequent studies of cortical localization of higher cognitive …

TBI predominantly causes damage to the frontal/temporal regions, regardless of the
pathophysiology. Limiting the spotlight to the frontal lobes, a model is presented describing …

On the 50th anniversary of Norman Geschwind's seminal paper entitled 'Disconnexion
syndrome in animal and man', we pay tribute to his ideas by applying contemporary …
