  2. Development of the nervous system in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_nervous...

    The rise and fall of the volume of grey matter in the frontal and parietal lobes peaked at ~12 years of age. The peak for the temporal lobes was ~17 years with the superior temporal cortex being last to mature. The sensory and motor regions matured first after which the rest of the cortex developed.

  3. Brodmann area 38 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_38

    Brodmann area 38, also BA38 or temporopolar area 38 (H), is part of the temporal cortex in the human brain. BA 38 is at the anterior end of the temporal lobe, known as the temporal pole. BA38 is a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined temporal region of cerebral cortex.

  4. Human brain development timeline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_brain_development...

    Cortical white matter increases from childhood (~9 years) to adolescence (~14 years), most notably in the frontal and parietal cortices. [8] Cortical grey matter development peaks at ~12 years of age in the frontal and parietal cortices, and 14–16 years in the temporal lobes (with the superior temporal cortex being last to mature), peaking at about roughly the same age in both sexes ...

  6. Temporal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_lobe

    The temporal lobe is located beneath the lateral fissure on both cerebral hemispheres of the mammalian brain. [3] The temporal lobe is involved in processing sensory input into derived meanings for the appropriate retention of visual memory, language comprehension, and emotion association. [4]: 21 Temporal refers to the head's temples.

  7. Development of the cerebral cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the...

    Neurons formed in the ventricular zone migrate to their final locations in one of the six layers of the cortex. [1] The process occurs from embryonic day 10 to 17 in mice and between gestational weeks seven to 18 in humans. [2] The cortex is the outermost layer of the brain and consists primarily of gray matter, or neuronal cell

  8. Temporoparietal junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporoparietal_junction

    The brain contains four main lobes: temporal lobe, parietal lobe, frontal lobe, and the occipital lobe. The temporoparietal junction lies in the region between the temporal and parietal lobes, near the lateral sulcus (Sylvian fissure). Specifically, it is composed of the inferior parietal lobule and the caudal parts of the superior temporal ...

  9. Brodmann area 20 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_20

    The region encompasses most of the ventral temporal cortex, a region believed to play a part in high-level visual processing and recognition memory. This area is also known as inferior temporal area 20, and it refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined temporal region of cerebral cortex. In the human it corresponds approximately ...
