The outer part of the cortex can be broken up into lobes. So, for example, you've got the frontal lobe, which is sitting at the front of the brain. That's going to be really important when it comes to cognition and learning executive function. The pre-central gyrus was historically a map - but I don't think maths analogies are working today. But anyway, in front of that central sulcus, you'veGot the pre-central Gyrus. And that's a bump up on your brain called the central gyrus. Well, no, sorry, the solus. You could have said 'the Nile Valley' instead.
In this thought-provoking episode, Dr Matt and Dr Mike delve into the intriguing world of neuroscience as a new paper emerges, presenting significant findings that challenge long-held beliefs about the motor cortex. Join us as we carefully examine the intricate details of this study and discuss its implications for our understanding of movement, motor control, and brain plasticity. Together, we navigate the evolving landscape of the motor cortex and explore how these fresh insights may shape the future of neuroscience. Get ready to gain new perspectives and explore the fascinating developments unfolding in our understanding of the motor cortex.
