Anatomic, physiologic and behavioral studies in nonhuman primates have suggested why these regions may be important for memory. An understanding of the und ...

... Neurons make up a large part of the brain, but they are not the only cells that affect our thinking, learning, memory, perception, and all of the other facets of life that make us who we are. The other primary cells are called glia, or glial cells, which serve a variety of functions. While historica ...

Many of the axons entering or leaving the cortex do not assemble into compact bundles, except in the vicinity of the thalamus and the basal ganglia, where they form a structure known as the internal capsule. The internal capsule lies just lateral to the diencephalon ...

They found no evidence of lateralisation, with confabulation occurring following both left and right unilateral and bilateral frontal lesions, but reported that the most common sites of damage were the orbitofrontal and ventromedial aspects of the frontal lobe.

Cognitive neuroscience of music

The cognitive neuroscience of music is the scientific study of brain-based mechanisms involved in the cognitive processes underlying music. These behaviours include music listening, performing, composing, reading, writing, and ancillary activities. It also is increasingly concerned with the brain basis for musical aesthetics and musical emotion. Scientists working in this field may have training in cognitive neuroscience, neurology, neuroanatomy, psychology, music theory, computer science, and other relevant fields.The cognitive neuroscience of music represents a significant branch of music psychology, and is distinguished from related fields such as cognitive musicology in its reliance on direct observations of the brain and use of such techniques as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroencephalography (EEG), and positron emission tomography (PET).
