Large-scale expansion of the face representation in somatosensory areas of the lateral sulcus after spinal cord injuries in monkeys.

21 Sep 2009 Transection of dorsal columns of the spinal cord in adult monkeys results in large-scale expansion of the face inputs into the deafferented hand region in the primary somatosensory cortex (area 3b) and the ventroposterior nucleus of thalamus. Here, ... Read more...

Aberrant frontoparietal function during recognition memory in schizophrenia: a multimodal neuroimaging investigation.

7 Sep 2009 Prefrontal-parietal networks are essential to many cognitive processes, including the ability to differentiate new from previously presented items. As patients with schizophrenia exhibit structural abnormalities in these areas along with well ... Read more...

White-matter abnormalities in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: a diffusion tensor imaging study.

30 Aug 2009 Current evidence suggests that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) involves dysfunction in wide functional networks of brain areas associated with attention and cognition. This study examines the structural integrity of white-matter ... Read more...
