The superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) is part of the longitudinal association fiber system,
which lays connections between the frontal lobe and other areas of the ipsilateral …

Whereas the cerebral cortex has long been regarded by neuroscientists as the major locus
of cognitive function, the white matter of the brain is increasingly recognized as equally …

A traditional and widely used approach for linking neurological symptoms to specific brain
regions involves identifying overlap in lesion location across patients with similar symptoms …

Emotion, memories and behaviour emerge from the coordinated activities of regions
connected by the limbic system. Here, we propose an update of the limbic model based on …

The frontal aslant tract is a direct pathway connecting Broca's region with the anterior
cingulate and pre-supplementary motor area. This tract is left lateralized in right-handed …

Executive functions are high-level cognitive processes involving abilities such as working
memory/updating, set-shifting and inhibition. These complex cognitive functions are enabled …

Stroke causes focal brain lesions that disrupt functional connectivity (FC), a measure of
activity synchronization, throughout distributed brain networks. It is often assumed that FC …

Cognitive Neuroscience of Language provides an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and
pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in this exciting field. It …

Broca's area in the posterior half of the left inferior frontal gyrus has long been thought to be
critical for speech production. The current view is that long-term speech production outcome …

A growing number of studies approach the brain as a complex network, the so-called
'connectome'. Adopting this framework, we examine what types or extent of damage the …
