In the human brain, distinct functions tend to be localized in the left or right hemispheres,
with language ability usually localized predominantly in the left and spatial recognition in the …

Emerging evidence indicates impairments in somatosensory function may be a major
contributor to motor dysfunction associated with neurologic injury or disorders. However, the …

Книга посвящена анализу современных представлений о функциональной асимметрии
мозга. Рассмотрены данные о сенсорных и моторных латеральных признаках, роли …

The human nervous system consists of seemingly symmetric left and right halves. However,
closer observation of the brain reveals anatomical and functional lateralization. Defects in …

Although not consistently replicated, a substantial number of studies suggest that left-
handers have larger callosal regions than right-handers. We challenge this notion and …

We examined whether the apparent size of an object is scaled to the morphology of the
relevant body part with which one intends to act on it. To be specific, we tested if the visually …

The goal of this study was to explore neural response to touch in children with and without
autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Patterns of reduced (hypo-responsiveness) and enhanced …

Perception of one's body is related not only to the physical appearance of the body, but also
to the neural representation of the body. The brain contains many body maps that …

Neuronal oscillatory activity in the beta band (15–30 Hz) is a prominent signal within the
human sensorimotor cortex. Computational modeling and pharmacological modulation …

An important part of the cortical processing of swallowing takes place in the sensorimotor
cortex, predominantly in the left hemisphere. However, until now, only deglutition related …
