The brains of humans and other animals are asymmetrically organized, but we still know
little about the ontogenetic and neural fundaments of lateralizations. Here, we review the …

Left-handers are often excluded from study cohorts in neuroscience and neurogenetics in
order to reduce variance in the data. However, recent investigations have shown that the …

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 4th Edition, is a revised and updated edition of the
landmark text focusing on the development of brain and behaviour during infancy …

Hand preference is a conspicuous variation in human behaviour, with a worldwide
proportion of around 90% of people preferring to use the right hand for many tasks, and 10 …

Leg dominance reflects the preferential use of one leg over another and is typically
attributed to asymmetries in the neural circuitry. Detecting leg dominance effects on motor …

Lateralization is a fundamental principle of nervous system organization but its molecular
determinants are mostly unknown. In humans, asymmetric gene expression in the fetal …

Dominance of the left hemisphere for many aspects of speech production and perception is
one of the best known examples of functional hemispheric asymmetries in the human brain …

The left and right sides of the human brain are specialized for different kinds of information
processing, and much of our cognition is lateralized to an extent toward one side or the …

Hand preference–which is related to cerebral dominance–is thought to be associated with
cognitive skills; however, findings on this association are inconsistent and there is no …

Hemispheric asymmetries are a central principle of nervous system architecture and shape
the functional organization of most cognitive systems. Structural gray matter asymmetries …
