TL;DR: It is shown that the prefrontal area is selectively activated in humans during the perception of objects qualified as "beautiful" by the participants, which means aesthetics can be hypothetically considered as an attribute perceived by means of a particular brain processing system, in which the prefrontal cortex seems to play a key role.

TL;DR: It is inferred that the different strategies used by men and women in assessing aesthetic preference may reflect differences in the strategies associated with the division of labor between the authors' male and female hunter-gatherer hominin ancestors.

TL;DR: New evidence of the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying neuronal plasticity processes after brain injury is provided, and it is suggested that these changes are related with observed changes at the behavioural level.

TL;DR: The results support the predominant role of the temporoparietal areas in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and Magnetoencephalography and the source analysis of focal slow activity in particular provide interesting and potentially clinically useful tools to assess functional modifications of patients' brain and to evaluate its relationship with the cognitive status.

TL;DR: Controls and patients with MDD showed enhanced current source strengths at ssVEF frequency in occipital and parietal cortex for high-arousing emotional pictures, and only controls showed strong arousal modulation in the right temporoparietal cortex.
