The temporal lobe—a key area of our brain responsible for our memory and communication—could also reveal hidden clues about how human brains have evolved over time, according to a new study ...

The brain has two temporal lobes, one on each side of the brain, located near the ears. The two are interchangeable so if one is damaged the other is usually able to take over the other's function.

The anterior temporal lobe (ATL) plays a key role in interpreting social hierarchies and facial emotions, offering insight into anxiety and mood disorders.

Understanding how our brain interprets social hierarchy or facial emotions may be key to advancing our knowledge of anxiety and mood disorders. This is the aim of the project led by researcher Maya ...

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, which accounts for about 80% of all temporal lobe seizures, involves seizures starting in or near a part of the brain called the hippocampus, which controls memory ...

Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) is a group of brain disorders that primarily affect the frontal and temporal lobes. This is the area of the brain responsible for personality, behavior, and language.

Using electrodes implanted in the temporal lobes of awake patients, scientists have decoded brain signals at nearly the speed of perception. Further, analysis of patients' neural responses to two ...

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, which accounts for about 80% of all temporal lobe seizures, involves seizures starting in or near a part of the brain called the hippocampus, which controls memory ...

Epileptic activity originating from one or more diseased brain regions in the temporal lobe is difficult to contain. Many patients with so-called temporal lobe epilepsy often do not respond to ...

Surgery for mesial temporal lobe epilepsy correlated with a reduction in imaging-defined brain age, indicating that morphological brain changes related to accelerated aging may be reversible ...
