A lapse in function in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is partly responsible for people caving into their high calorie cravings, a new study reports.
Electrically stimulating the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex can enhance out ability to 'think outside the box', a new study reports.
Researchers report veterans with PTSD were better able to manage invasive traumatic memories with the help of mindfulness training.
Findings could point to a possible way to making people behave in less selfish, more empathetic ways.
Researchers have identified a new neural pathway by which several brain areas communicate within the striatum.
Studies of lucid dreamers visualise which centers of the brain become active when we become aware of ourselves. Studies demonstrate that a specific cortical network consisting of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the frontopolar regions and the precuneus is activated when this lucid consciousness is attained.
Researchers report veterans with PTSD were better able to manage invasive traumatic memories with the help of mindfulness training.
Researchers report consuming a savory broth can produce subtle neurobiological changes that promotes healthy eating behaviors and food choices.
Researchers identify genetic variations in the prefrontal cortex during different stages of development to assess how psychiatric conditions, such as autism and schizophrenia, may arise in individuals.
Using transcranial magnetic stimulation, researchers were able to increase and decrease people's enjoyment of music; and desire to listen to more.
Applying transcranial direct current stimulation to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex can help to improve cognitive control and may be a beneficial treatment for those with autism, schizophrenia and ADHD, a new study reports.
Tenacity, a newly developed video game that promotes mindfulness, alters connectivity between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the inferior parietal cortex. These areas of the brain are critical for attention. After playing the game for a short period, participants reported improvements in attention.
