Anxiety often is studied as a stand-alone construct in laboratory models. But in the context of
coping with real-life anxiety, its negative impacts extend beyond aversive feelings and …

In recent years, two separate research streams have focused on information sharing
between the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and hippocampus (HC). Research into spatial …

The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has been the focus of intense research interest in recent
years. Although separate theories relate ACC function variously to conflict monitoring …

Although frontostriatal circuits are critical for the temporal control of action, how time is
encoded in frontostriatal circuits is unknown. We recorded from frontal and striatal neurons …

In the last two decades the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has become one of the most
investigated areas of the brain. Extensive neuroimaging evidence suggests countless …

The ability to sequence movements in response to new task demands enables rich and
adaptive behavior. However, such flexibility is computationally costly and can result in …

Behaviors and their execution depend on the context and emotional state in which they are
performed. The contextual modulation of behavior likely relies on regions such as the …

Coordinated shifts of neuronal activity in the prefrontal cortex are associated with strategy
adaptations in behavioural tasks, when animals switch from following one rule to another …

For proper execution of goal-directed behaviors, individuals require both a general
representation of the goal and an ability to monitor their own progress toward that goal …

The frontal cortex has been implicated in a number of cognitive and motivational processes,
but understanding how individual neurons contribute to these processes is particularly …
