In this article, we challenge the usefulness of “attention” as a unitary construct and/or neural
system. We point out that the concept has too many meanings to justify a single term, and …

There is considerable interest in the structural and functional properties of the angular gyrus
(AG). Located in the posterior part of the inferior parietal lobule, the AG has been shown in …

This article proposes that biologically plausible theories of behavior can be constructed by
following a method of “phylogenetic refinement,” whereby they are progressively elaborated …

A proposal for a fully post-phrenological neuroscience that details the evolutionary roots of
functional diversity in brain regions and networks. The computer analogy of the mind has …

Abstract Information processing in the cerebral cortex involves interactions among
distributed areas. Anatomical connectivity suggests that certain areas form local hierarchical …

States. It is an ancient mind and body practice with origins in Indian philosophy. Yoga …

Frequency-specific oscillations and phase-coupling of neuronal populations are essential
mechanisms for the coordination of activity between brain areas during cognitive tasks …

Background During the aging process, physical capabilities (eg, muscular strength) and
cognitive functions (eg, memory) gradually decrease. Regarding cognitive functions …

In recent years, ideas from the computational field of reinforcement learning have
revolutionized the study of learning in the brain, famously providing new, precise theories of …

Emotion regulation is hypothesized to be a multifaceted process by which individuals
willfully modulate the intensity and direction of emotional response via prefrontally mediated …
