Interesting study of functional #laterality in developing brains of fetuses in utero: 'connectivity in ... regions corresponding to Wernicke’s area was significantly left-lateralized' https://academic.oup.com/cercor/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cercor/bhac446/6908756

#Laterality

"Human right-handedness represents an unparalleled extreme among anthropoids and taxa displaying population-level handedness are rare. Species-level direction of manual #lateralization was largely uniform among non-human primates and did not strongly correlate with any of the selected biological predictors, nor with #phylogeny"

I'm very much looking forward to give a talk about recent findings on the genetics of human brain asymmetry at the Yamada conference 'Origin of left-right asymmetry in animals' in Kobe, Japan in January https://www2.bdr.riken.jp/sympo/yamadaconference/index.html See you there @ocklenBLOG@twitter.com

Hi,

I am a cognitive neuroscientist from the #UniversityOfOslo, Norway. I am teaching cognitive psychology and neuroscience. My research focusses on functional difference between the cerebral hemispheres of the human brain (#Laterality) and on how the two hemispheres interact via the structure called #CorpusCallosum.

#introduction

Hello.
I’m a recently retired Professor of Developmental Neuropsychology at University of Oxford, UK, with interests in developmental language disorders (#DevLangDis) and #laterality. On my blog I write about academic life, mostly letting off steam about things that irritate me, such academic evaluation. I’m very keen on #OpenScience & improving #Reproducibility & #Replicability of research.
I’m now focusing more on #ScienceFraud, with a current interest in academic papermills.
