New experiments by Christian Wood and colleagues suggest that the marmoset brain area 46 (A46) in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is key to a functional network that regulates positive and negative ...

Facial emotion representations expand from sensory cortex to prefrontal regions across development, suggesting that the prefrontal cortex matures with development to enable a full understanding of ...

Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

Researchers have reported finding major differences between postmortem and living prefrontal cortex brain tissues as they relate to one of the most abundant RNA modifications in the brain, known as ...

A new doctoral dissertation shows that gambling disorder is linked to brain networks involved in self-control and brain ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...

Prefrontal cortex biopsies taken for research purposes during deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedures appeared to be safe, new research has suggested. Investigators found no significant differences in ...

An image from the research shows axons from neurons in the ACA (red) and ORB (green) innervating the visual cortex, targeting discrete layers. Vision shapes behavior and, a new study by MIT ...
