Visual expertise reflects accumulated experience in reviewing domain-specific images and
has been shown to modulate brain function in task-specific functional magnetic resonance …

Dopamine neurons respond to reward-predicting cues but also modulate information
processing in the prefrontal cortex essential for cognitive control. Whether dopamine …

Intertemporal choice refers to decisions that need to weigh different rewards at different time
points in the future. Decision impulsivity manifests in the tendency of choosing smaller …

Subregions of the cingulate cortex represent prominent intersections in the structural
networks of the primate brain. The relevance of the cingulate to the structure and dynamics …

There is widespread consensus that distributed circuits across prefrontal and anterior
cingulate cortex (PFC/ACC) are critical for reward‐based decision making. The circuit …

Rationale Subjective values of actions are influenced by the uncertainty and immediacy of
expected rewards. Multiple brain areas, including the prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia …

Despite the evidence for altered decision making in cannabis abusers, the role of the
cannabinoid system in decision-making circuits has not been studied. Here, we examined …

The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortices (DLPFC) share
robust excitatory connections. However, during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, when …

The judgment of whether to accept or to reject an offer is determined by positive and
negative affect related to the offer, but affect also induces motivational responses …

Converging evidence supports the hypothesis that the prefrontal cortex is critical for
cognitive control. One prefrontal subregion, the anterior cingulate cortex, is hypothesized to …
