During evolution, the cerebral cortex advances by increasing in surface and the introduction
of new cytoarchitectonic areas among which the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is considered to be …

The transition from adolescence to adulthood is characterized by improvements in higher-
order cognitive abilities and corresponding refinements of the structure and function of the …

Cognitive control, the ability to orchestrate behavior in accord with our goals, depends on
the prefrontal cortex. These cognitive functions are heavily influenced by the …

Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by repetitive thoughts and
behaviours that are experienced as unwanted. Family and twin studies have demonstrated …

Among the many neuromodulators used by the mammalian brain to regulate circuit function
