Because of the arbitrary way most of the borders between lobes are demarcated, they have little functional significance.
gyri and sulci
Deep folding features in the brain, such as the inter-hemispheric and lateral fissure, which divides the left and right brain, and the lateral sulcus, which "splits-off" the temporal lobe, are present in almost all normal subjects.
Neuroscientists, along with researchers from allied disciplines, study how the human brain works.
Information about the structure and function of the human brain comes from a variety of experimental methods. Some techniques, however, are used mainly in humans, and therefore are described here.
