Physics is a field of science that has traditionally used the scientific method to answer
questions about why natural phenomena occur and to make testable models that explain the …

Neurons often respond to diverse combinations of task-relevant variables. This form of
mixed selectivity plays an important computational role which is related to the dimensionality …

Sensitive developmental periods shape neural circuits and enable adaptation. However,
they also engender vulnerability to factors that can perturb developmental trajectories. An …

Adaptive behavior requires integrating prior with current information to anticipate upcoming
events. Brain structures related to this computation should bring relevant signals from the …

Despite continual debate for the past 30 years about the function of anterior cingulate cortex
(ACC), its key contribution to neurocognition remains unknown. However, recent …

Emerging evidence implicates rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in tasks requiring
adaptation of behavior to changing information from external and internal sources. However …

A major tenet in theoretical neuroscience is that cognitive and behavioral processes are
ultimately implemented in terms of the neural system dynamics. Accordingly, a major aim for …

Despite being an intensive area of research, the function of the anterior cingulate cortex
(ACC) remains somewhat of a mystery. Human imaging studies implicate the ACC in various …

Non-pharmacological behavioral addictions, such as pathological gambling, videogaming,
social networking, or internet use, are becoming major public health concerns. It is not yet …

Massive investment and technological advances in the collection of extensive and
longitudinal information on thousands of Alzheimer patients results in large amounts of data …
