Deciphering the Century-Old Mystery: Revealing the Temporal Pole’s Function in the Brain

Researchers uncovered the critical role of the temporal pole, a previously mysterious area of the brain. A disease called TDP-C that specifically damages the temporal pole allowed the team to discern its function in word comprehension, face recognition, and behavior regulation.

Towards Better Management of Disinhibition in Frontotemporal Dementia

People with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) exhibit behaviors that are considered socially unacceptable. While there is no current cure for FTD, researchers are finding methods to help inhibit some of the negative behaviors associated with FTD. A new study reports impulsivity and negative behaviors are greatly reduced in those with bvFTD when the patient is focused on a task.
