Conflict monitoring and anterior cingulate cortex: an update [PDF]
One hypothesis concerning the human dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) is that it functions, in part, to signal the occurrence of conflicts in information processing, thereby triggering compensatory adjustments in cognitive control. Since this idea was first proposed, a great deal of relevant empirical evidence has accrued.

The von Economo neurons in frontoinsular and anterior cingulate cortex in great apes and humans [PDF]
The von Economo neurons (VENs) are large bipolar neurons located in frontoinsular (FI) and anterior cingulate cortex in great apes and humans, but not other primates.

Multiple signals in anterior cingulate cortex
Activity in anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has been linked both to commitment to a course of action, even when it is associated with costs, and to exploring or searching for alternative courses of action. Here we review evidence that this is due to the presence of multiple signals in ACC reflecting the updating of beliefs and internal models of the ...

The neural correlates of regulating another person's emotions: an exploratory fMRI study [PDF]
Studies investigating the neurophysiological basis of intrapersonal emotion regulation (control of one's own emotional experience) report that the frontal cortex exerts a modulatory effect on limbic structures such as the amygdala and insula. However, no

Distal Functional Connectivity of Known and Emerging Cortical Targets for Therapeutic Noninvasive Stimulation. [PDF]
Noninvasive stimulation is an emerging modality for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including addiction. A crucial element in effective cortical target selection is its distal influence.

Default Mode Network alterations in alexithymia: An EEG power spectra and connectivity study [PDF]
Recent neuroimaging studies have shown that alexithymia is characterized by functional alterations in different brain areas [e.g., posterior cingulate cortex (PCC)], during emotional/social tasks.

Performance monitoring at the task and the response level [PDF]
How errors and confl ict are processed in the human brain, has been extensively investigated over the last decades. In this review, we argue that error research has mainly focused on one type of errors, namely errors at the response level.

Fictive Reward Signals in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex [PDF]
The Path Not Taken People readily recognize that unchosen actions have consequences and adjust their behavior accordingly. The ability to recognize fictive outcomes is thought to be a necessary component of regret, and disruptions in this ability may cause anxiety and problem gambling. Do animals engage in this same process?

How the brain represents the reward value of fat in the mouth. [PDF]
The palatability and pleasantness of the sensory properties of foods drive food selection and intake and may contribute to overeating and obesity. Oral fat texture can make food palatable and pleasant.

Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex: A Bottom-Up View [PDF]
The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) has attracted great interest from neuroscientists because it is associated with so many important cognitive functions. Despite, or perhaps because of, its rich functional repertoire, we lack a single comprehensive view of its function.
