Subject field(s)
  • Nervous System
CONT

Neural activity cannot be random. Instead it must be defined, both temporally and spatially, and must occur in the presence of special kinds of synapses.

CONT

... the investigators determined that the heaviest concentration of neural activity took place in posterior areas. The PET scans showed that the posterior region - including the parietal and occipital lobes - controls such functions as spatial memory and the imaging of scenes.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Système nerveux
