The prefrontal cortex makes up almost a quarter of the human brain, and it expanded
dramatically during primate evolution. The Neurobiology of the Prefrontal Cortex presents a …

A successor to the acclaimed Neurobiology of the Prefrontal Cortex, Understanding the
Prefrontal Cortex presents a careful study of the anatomical connections in this brain region …

The largest part of the primate prefrontal cortex has no homolog in other mammals.
Accordingly, it probably confers some advantage that other mammals either lack or attain …

During evolution, the prefrontal region grew in size relative to the rest of the cortex. It
reached its largest extent in the human brain, where it constitutes 30% of the total cortical …

The prefrontal cortex is one of the latest regions of the neocortex to develop, in both
phylogeny and ontogeny. In the primate, the prefrontal cortex is anatomically divided into …

One of the enduring mysteries of brain function concerns the process of cognitive control.
How does complex and seemingly wilful behaviour emerge from interactions between …

Brodmann's area 10 is one of the largest cytoarchitecturally defined regions in the human
cerebral cortex, occupying the most anterior part of the prefrontal cortex [frontopolar cortex …

The ability to generalize behaviour–guiding principles and concepts from experience is key
to intelligent, goal–directed behaviour. It allows us to deal efficiently with a complex world …

The prefrontal cortex is critical to many cognitive abilities that are considered particularly
human, and forms a large part of a neural system crucial for normal socio-emotional and …

Pandya (Figure 1). Phylogenetically, it is one of the latest zation, sensory and motor areas
support specific sencortices to develop, having attained maximum relative sory and motor …
