## Abstract Twin studies suggest that variation in human brain volume is genetically influenced. The genes involved in human brain volume variation are still largely unknown, but several candidate genes have been suggested. An overview of structural Magnetic Resonance (brain) Imaging studies in twi
## Abstract The accuracy of cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging in humans has been impeded by the partial volume effects (PVE), which are a consequence of the limited spatial resolution. Because of brain atrophy, PVE can be particularly problematic in imaging the elderly and can considerably overesti
## Abstract We used the combined technique of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to observe changes that occur in adult brains after the practice of stringed musical instruments. We carried out fMRI on eight volunteers (aged 20β22 years): five n
## Abstract ## Objective Some studies suggest that the effects of low to moderate drinking (about 1β3 standard glasses of alcohol per day) on the brain and cognitive performance are positive. In the present study this hypothesis is investigated. ## Methods For this purpose studies on the effects
