Neurovědec Adrian Owen učinil se svým týmem převratný objev. Prokázal, že vážně poškozený mozek některých nehybných a nereagujících pacientů vykazuje při snímkování funkční magnetickou rezonancí zřetelnou aktivitu. Statisticky se to týká téměř každého pátého pacienta ve vegetativním stavu. Objev vědci poprvé publikovali v časopisu Science. Soumračný svět vědomí těchto pacientů – kdesi mezi životem a smrtí – nazval Owen „šerá zóna“.
Lidé, kteří tuto soumračnou zónu obývají, jsou často považováni za nenávratně...

In 2006 Dr Adrian Owen and his team made medical history. But now, through Dr Owen's pioneering techniques, we can talk to them - and they can talk back.

While the importance of the prefrontal cortex for "higher-order" cognitive functions is largely undisputed, no consensus has been reached regarding precise specifications of these functions. For example, although some degree of regional specialization within the frontal lobe seems inevitable, by and large, most attempts to map specific cognitive functions onto neuroanatomical and/or cytoarchitectonic subdivisions have been disappointing. Although a high degree of functional specialization probably exists within the frontal cortex, it seems increasingly likely that the structural organization...
