The superior frontal gyrus (SFG) is thought to contribute to higher cognitive functions and
particularly to working memory (WM), although the nature of its involvement remains a …

Recent functional neuroimaging studies have provided a wealth of new information about
the likely organization of working memory processes within the human lateral frontal cprtex …

We investigated working memory in patients with focal brain damage involving subregions
of the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Lesions in the dorsal portion of lateral PFC or the …

Recent studies with nonhuman primates have shown that lesions of the mid-dorsolateral
prefrontal cortex, which extends from the lip of the dorsal bank of the sulcus principalis to the …

Although monkey lesion studies involving the prefrontal cortex commonly report working
memory deficits, and neuroimaging studies consistently show prefrontal involvement in such …

Although prefrontal cortex is clearly important in executive function, the specific processes
carried out by particular regions within human prefrontal cortex remain a matter of debate. A …

In recent years, theoretical perspectives on posterior parietal function have evolved beyond
the traditional visuospatial processing models to include more diverse cognitive operations …

A lesion to the superior frontal gyrus (SFG) has been associated with long-lasting deficits in
complex motor functions. The aim of this study was to analyze the functional role of the SFG …

Functional neuroimaging in human subjects and studies of monkeys with lesions limited to
the mid-dorsolateral (MDL) prefrontal cortex have shown that this specific region of the …

OBJECTIVE Although the right prefrontal region is regarded as a silent area, chronic deficits
of the executive function, including working memory (WM), could occur after resection of a …
