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 …

White matter makes up about fifty percent of the human brain. Maturation of white matter
accompanies biological development and undergoes the most dramatic changes during …

In this review, we examine the structural connectivity of a recently-identified fiber pathway,
the frontal aslant tract (FAT), and explore its function. We first review structural connectivity …

The frontal aslant tract (FAT) is a recently identified white matter tract connecting the
supplementary motor complex and lateral superior frontal gyrus to the inferior frontal gyrus …

The human brain forms functional networks of correlated activity, which have been linked
with both cognitive and clinical outcomes. However, the genetic variants affecting brain …

Much is known about the role of cortical areas in language processing. The shift towards
network approaches in recent years has highlighted the importance of uncovering the role of …

Aims White matter hyperintensity (WMH) is the most common neuroimaging manifestation of
cerebral small vessel disease and is related to cognitive dysfunction or dementia. This study …

Executive functions are high-level cognitive processes involving abilities such as working
memory/updating, set-shifting and inhibition. These complex cognitive functions are enabled …

The functional and computational properties of brain areas are determined, in large part, by
their connectivity profiles. Advances in neuroimaging and network neuroscience allow us to …

Physical exercise may reduce dementia risk in aging, but varying reports on its effectiveness
make it challenging to ascribe what level of exercise will have significant longer-term effects …
