Brain Region Identified That Controls Collecting Behavior
     Most people have a collection of some kind at some point in their
lives, but very little is known about what drives humans to collect. By
studying patients who developed abnormal hoarding behavior following brain
injury, researchers have identified an area in the prefrontal cortex that
appears to control collecting behavior.
