University of California San Diego scientists say this discovery could help offer a path to new therapies and technologies ...

The frontal lobe can be divided into the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for personality expression and the planning of complex cognitive behaviors; and the premotor and motor areas ...

A landmark study published by scientists at the University of California San Diego is redefining science's understanding of the way learning takes place.

The primary motor cortex sits in the back of the frontal lobes, near the temple. The dominant paradigm states that the motor cortex is simplistic. Planning, cognition, and conscious initiation of ...

At a time when investigating the functional anatomy of the motor cortex is all but out of fashion in favor of black-box decoders and brain-machine interfaces, it is pure joy to read about a decade ...
