And many researchers felt that the handedness gene must be overlapping in some functional way with the genetic background of language lateralization in the brain. This would explain the correlation ...

In particular, they display less brain lateralization than right-handers, said Eric Zillmer, a professor of neuropsychology at Drexel University. Brain lateralization is the idea that the human ...

Basically, could global warming make sharks right- or left-handed? "Since behavioral lateralization is an expression of brain function, it can be used as a barometer of normal brain development ...

A suite of studies has revealed brain lateralization in species from fish to primates. Last August, for instance, scientists discovered that in the wild, chimpanzees show hand preferences.

A dog's tail reveals unambiguous messages about its mood. Now, a study on tail wagging may lend credence to the contested theory that nonhuman vertebrates have asymmetric brain function. Angelo ...

Source: François et al., eNeuro 2019 DOI: 10.1523/ENEURO.0447-18.2019 Hemispheric specialization refers to the lateralization of function between the left and right cerebral hemispheres.

Previous research on honey bees found a link between lateralization to learn odours better with the right antenna, and more smell sensors on the right antenna than the left. Behavioural ...
