cortex

Converse of object

• activate: In these conditions it seems appropriate to activate intact visual cortex of blind or partial sight patients to rehabilitate vision.
• stimulate: This fragment of the complete ACTH molecule does not stimulate the adrenal cortex to produce hormones.

Adjective modifier

• prefrontal: In addition, lowered activity in the prefrontal cortex relative to controls has been reported for those with autism.
• cerebral: An analysis of cell lineage in the rat cerebral cortex.
• frontal: More recently, I have begun to explore a possible general role for the frontal cortex in processing emotion more broadly.
• adrenal: The outer part of the adrenal gland is the adrenal cortex which makes three main hormones called steroids.
• perirhinal: Cells in the perirhinal cortex, which provide a major input to LEC, also revealed little spatial tuning.
• parietal: The results do not indicate a specific role of parietal cortex in attentional shifting.

Modifies a noun

activation: Likewise, lots of fMRI studies in humans also show premotor cortex activations caused in the absence of motor requirements.

Noun used with modifier

• premotor: Likewise, lots of fMRI studies in humans also show premotor cortex activations caused in the absence of motor requirements.
• pre-frontal: This is because they regularly exercise the part of the brain known as the pre-frontal cortex which reinforces attention span.
• motor: Powerful magnets aimed at the motor cortex have been shown to induce muscles to twitch.
• barrel: Recent research work here has been undertaken on the auditory cortex and the rodent barrel cortex.
• rat: The scientists managed to stimulate single brain cells in the rat cortex.
• root: Look for signs of mycorrhizal infection - the root cortex will contain bright blue or purple staining hyphal threads.

Possessives

brain: In the past, researchers trying to understand dyslexia have focused on the highly developed language centers of the brain's cerebral cortex.

Preposition: in

brain: Each receptor is connected through the optic nerve to the visual cortex in the brain.

Preposition: of

• monkey: The final experiments measure attentional modulation of single neuron activity in the visual cortex of the monkey.
• brain: A core pathology of the disease is reduced activity in the prefrontal cortex of the brain.
• rat: In addition, Robbins has found alterations in the hippocampus, amygdala and prefrontal cortex of these rats.
