Another area in superior parietal cortex (dotted red circles in Fig. 2b) was bilaterally activated as strongly (3–5% peak-to-peak signal amplitude) as primary somatosensory cortex. This area was ...

New research by neuroscientists at the University of Chicago shows that the posterior parietal cortex, an area of the brain often associated with planning movements and spatial awareness, also plays a ...

New research by neuroscientists at the University of Chicago shows that the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), an area of the brain often associated with planning movements and spatial awareness ...

Neuroscientists show that the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), an area of the brain often associated with planning movements and spatial awareness, also plays a crucial role in making decisions ...

The somatosensory cortex in the front part of the parietal lobe resides in two areas: the postcentral gyrus and the posterior paracentral lobule. It helps process and interpret touch sensations ...

Not only the somatosensory cortex is involved in the perception of touch The researchers were able to show that not only the somatosensory cortex is involved in the perception of touch, but also parts ...

Research on monkeys suggests that the posterior parietal cortex contains a sort of “map of intentions”, where different areas are dedicated to planning different groups of movements ...

The role of posterior parietal cortex in beat-based timing perception: a continuous theta burst stimulation study. Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience . Published online January 18, 2018. doi: 10. ...

What happens in our brains when reaching for that hot latte or cold milkshake? Researchers from the Max Delbrück Center have discovered a brain region responsible for perceptions of hot and cold when ...

Yogis had larger brain volume in the somatosensory cortex, which contains a mental map of our body, the superior parietal cortex, involved in directing attention, and the visual cortex, which ...
