Neonatal medial frontal cortex lesions disrupt circadian activity patterns.

9 Aug 2009 The medial frontal cortex (MFC) is involved in the temporal organization of behaviour. It receives timing information from the master circadian clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), and exhibits daily oscillations in gene expression itself. In ... Read more...

Disability from "soft" neuropsychiatric sequelae due to frontal lobe injury.

30 Jul 2009 Each year about 1.5 million people suffer from a traumatic brain injury. Many of these are seen in primary care settings and most recover completely. Traumatic brain injury can show many signs and symptoms, some of which are readily identified and ... Read more...

Response disengagement on a spatial self-ordered sequencing task: effects of regionally selective excitotoxic lesions and serotonin depletion within the prefrontal cortex.

4 May 2009 Prefrontal cortex (PFC) is critical for self-ordered response sequencing. Patients with frontal lobe damage are impaired on response sequencing tasks, and increased blood flow has been reported in ventrolateral and dorsolateral PFC in subjects ... Read more...
