The molecular and cellular underpinnings of human brain lateralization Hemispheric specialization is a fundamental characteristic of human brain organization, where most individuals exhibit left-hemisphere dominance for language and right-hemisphere dominance for visuosp...

🚨 New #preprint: The molecular and cellular underpinnings of human brain lateralization

🔗 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

🧠 We identify an acetylcholine-norepinephrine axis underlying functional lateralization, along with mitochondrial and cellular correlates. 🧵1/9👇

A fresh take on an age-old question! An exciting study just dropped that reexamines the connection between corpus callosum structure and functional brain laterality.

🚀 Preprint alert! New work by @nicohinrichs.bsky.social, a recent member of our lab, explores multimodal dialogue annotation for neurophysiological mapping of communication—plus insights on speech acts, implicatures & turn-taking: doi.org/10.31234/osf... #Neuropragmatics #CognitiveLinguistics

Excited to share our latest preprint on the retest reliability of measuring 'bilateral' hemispheric language dominance using functional neuroimaging! 🔎🧠🔍 Discover how our findings inform the challenging classification of 'small' asymmetries in brain activation: osf.io/ry4sf_v1

Genetics of human handedness: microtubules and beyond Handedness (i.e., the preference to use either the left or the right hand for fine motor tasks) is a widely investigated trait. Handedness heritabilit…

New handedness review article with @silparacchini.bsky.social Jutta Peterburs & Annakarina Mundorf in @cp-trendsgenetics.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New publication from our lab! @sabrinaturker.bsky.social, @philkuhnke.bsky.social, @vincentcheung.bsky.social, Konstantin Weise and @gesahartwigsen.bsky.social show that neurostimulation can improve reading skills in dyslexia, mediated via functional coupling changes within the reading network.

New preprint from our lab!! 🥳🍾 With a novel dual-site TMS design, @philkuhnke.bsky.social and his colleagues show that the multimodal left inferior parietal cortex and auditory cortex jointly contribute to sound knowledge retrieval:
