This volume brings together an unprecedented compilation of papers from esteemed Russian psychophysiologists, cognitive scientists, and neuroscientists. The contributors explain the disciplinary trajectories and theoretical foundations inspiring their experimental research, providing important intellectual contexts. Commentaries by editors Chris Forsythe and Gabriel Radvansky discuss the relationships between Russian, European, and American developments in cognitive science and neuroscience. This volume provides a detailed exposition of the distinctively Russian advances in neuropsychology and cognitive science from the late nineteenth century to the present.

En réveillant un patient pendant son opération du cerveau pour poser sur ses yeux un casque de réalité virtuelle, Philippe Menei a réalisé une première chirurgicale dont le but est de cartographier l’hémisphère droit. À la lumière des connaissances récentes, en particulier issues de la chirurgie du cerveau chez un patient éveillé, ce livre explique pourquoi et comment nos hémisphères cérébraux se sont spécialisés pour parler chacun son propre langage. Il revisite le mythe du cerveau droit/cerveau gauche et dévoile pourquoi une carte cérébrale atypique peut être à l’origine de difficultés… ou de super pouvoirs intellectuels. À l’orée du transhumanisme, sera-t-il possible d’améliorer nos capacités cérébrales en stimulant notre hémisphère droit ? Dessiner la « carte du cerveau droit » permettra-t-il l’émergence de nouveaux traitements des troubles de la communication comme l’autisme ? Ou cette carte pourrait-elle être dérobée par des pirates et devenir notre point faible ?

This volume discusses the latest imaging and molecular techniques for studying microcephaly through neural progenitor proliferation, survival, and gene expression. All of the methods covered in this book use the mouse as a model system, and include cellular, metabolic, transcriptomic studies of neural progenitors, MR imaging studies of brain growth in 3-dimensions and developmentally-adapted studies of behavior in neonatal mice. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Microcephaly: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for all researchers who want to expand their knowledge and understanding of this important and developing field.

Inhibitory control is a critical neurocognitive skill for navigating cognitive, social, and emotional challenges. It rapidly increases during the preschool period and is important for early cognitive development, as it is a crucial component of executive functioning, self-regulation, and impulsivity. Inhibitory control training (ICT) is a novel intervention in which participants learn to associate appetitive cues with inhibition of behavior. It is being considered a promising approach in the treatment of psychopathology and appetitive behaviors. This book aims to bring together knowledge on the topic, considering research, clinic, and forensic field of intervention. Indeed, this book can be considered an excellent synopsis of perspectives, methods, empirical evidence, and international references.

"In this innovative book, cognitive psychologist Shelia M. Kennison presents a rich overview of research on how the human brain works when processing humor, drawing on the new and sophisticated brain-imaging technologies that have enabled researchers and health professionals to expand their knowledge about how the brain works under different conditions. Kennison examines how humor is involved in cognition and memory, human development, and overall mental and physical health. Studies show that comprehending humor involves numerous regions throughout the brain and leads to physiological changes in the brain and body, which are beneficial for health. In contrast, humor deficits are observed in cases of normal aging, brain damage resulting from traumatic brain injury or disease, and developmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder. Readers will gain a fundamental understanding of the biological basis of humor"--
