Editorial: Neuroanatomy of cognition
Research on neuroanatomy of cognition utilizes various approaches and techniques to study the neural structures and pathways involved in cognitive processes. In this special issue, a diverse range of methodologies, such as fMRI, lesion network mapping, MRI tractography, genetic strategies, and viral-based directional tracers, are employed to reveal the neuroanatomy of cognition and its implications for brain disorders. The role of subcortical structures in cognition, an area of active research that has made significant advancements in recent years, is highlighted. The interaction between subcortical and cortical structures in cognitive processing occurs through complex and interconnected networks. The included articles demonstrate that cortico-subcortical interaction influences not only motor behavior and consciousness but also cognition and emotion.Janko et al reviewed the localization of finger representations as documented in various human fMRI studies.
