Prefrontal Cortex

Involving 36 volunteers, the study found that stimulating the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) was more effective than the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC) in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.

According to a new study, specific part of the prefrontal cortex of the brain is important for the initial stages of learning to seek food.

Results showed that participants who share more about themselves on Facebook had greater connectivity of both the medial prefrontal cortex and precuneus.

If you wish to stay sharp even in the golden years, regular exercise may be of immense help, suggests new research.

A recent study established that our brain activity may be related to food cravings. According to health experts, a certain area in brain - dorsolateral prefrontal cortex -  is responsible for triggering food cravings. The study also suggested that...

Old age comes with its own set of inevitable problems and one of them happens to be the rate at which the brain functions. Certain parts of the brain, especially the area of the frontal lobe (prefrontal cortex) and the hippocampus start to shrink. Both...

A new study conducted by the University of Waterloo explains the link between a certain part of brain and craving high-calorie food. According to the researchers, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is an area in brain that is involved in 'execution function'....
