The brain’s hemispheres are specialized for efficiency. Modern neuroscience shows lateralization enhances function without ...

Lateralization of the brain—the tendency for the left and right hemispheres to specialize in different functions—underlies the development of a left-to-right mental number line, according to a study ...

As I concluded my previous post [Sexing the brain (function, anatomy, and structure)], I felt fairly safe in saying that there are no sex differences in lateralization for perceptual asymmetries as ...

But researchers were concerned about whether this procedure might have other, less desirable effects. What happens when the right and left sides of the cerebral cortex—responsible for an enormous ...
