For more than one century, brain processing was mainly thought in a localizationist
framework, in which one given function was underpinned by a discrete, isolated cortical …

The classical dogma of localizationism implicitly resulted in the principle of a similar brain
functional anatomy between individuals, as for example the pars opercularis of the left …

Recent studies identify a surprising coupling between evolutionarily new sulci and the
functional organization of human posteromedial cortex (PMC). Yet, no study has compared …

The lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) is an evolutionarily expanded region in humans that is
critical for numerous complex functions, many of which are largely hominoid specific …

The gyri and sulci of the human brain were defined by pioneers such as Louis-Pierre
Gratiolet and Alexander Ecker, and extensified by, among others, Dejerine and von …

Packet theory (Kirkpatrick 2002; Kirkpatrick and Church 2003) was originally developed to
provide a bridge between classical conditioning and interval timing. These two fields …

The dorsal visual stream consists of several functionally specialized areas, but most of their
cytoarchitectonic correlates have not yet been identified in the human brain. The cortex …

The microstructural correlates of the functional segregation of the human lateral occipital
cortex are largely unknown. Therefore, we analyzed the cytoarchitecture of this region in ten …

Human posterior intraparietal sulcus (pIPS) and adjacent posterior wall of parieto-occipital
sulcus (POS) are functionally diverse, serving higher motor, visual and cognitive functions …

Brains are not preserved in the fossil record but endocranial casts are. These are casts of
the internal bony braincase, revealing approximate brain size and shape, and they are also …
