Tyrannosaurid skeletal design first evolved at small body size.

15 Sep 2009 Nearly all of the large-bodied predators (>2.5 tons) on northern continents during the Late Cretaceous were tyrannosaurid dinosaurs. We show that their most conspicuous functional specializations--a proportionately large skull, incisiform ... Read more...

Sensory acquisition in the cerebellum: an FMRI study of cerebrocerebellar interaction during visual duration discrimination.

30 May 2009 It has been suggested that the cerebellum participates in diverse neuropsychological functions by adjusting the sensory information acquired for the connected brain regions to support its processing capabilities. Nevertheless, the knowledge of how ... Read more...

Concept of ideal closure line for clipping of middle cerebral artery aneurysms--technical note.

30 May 2009 The concept of optimum closure line was applied to a series of 51 consecutive middle cerebral artery aneurysms (14 ruptured, 37 unruptured) in 41 patients, 16 men and 25 women aged 29-79 years (mean 59.1 years). Visual inspection through the ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Cerebrum'

Definition: Derived from TELENCEPHALON, cerebrum is composed of a right and a left hemisphere. Each contains an outer cerebral cortex and a subcortical basal ganglia. The cerebrum includes all parts within the skull except the MEDULLA OBLONGATA, the PONS, and the CEREBELLUM. Cerebral functions include sensorimotor, emotional, and intellectual activities.
