Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex sensing analgesia
Biophysics and Physicobiology, 2022 Chronic pain often has an unknown cause, and many patients with chronic pain learn to accept that their pain is incurable and pharmacologic treatments are only temporarily effective.

Frontopolar Cortex Interacts With Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex to Causally Guide Metacognition. [PDF]
Hum Brain MappABSTRACTAccurate metacognitive judgments about an individual's performance in a mental task require the brain to have access to representations of the quality and difficulty of first‐order cognitive processes. However, little is known about how accurate metacognitive judgments are implemented in the brain.

Hindering memory suppression by perturbing the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
Journal of Cognitive NeuroscienceA reminder of the past can trigger the involuntary retrieval of an unwanted memory. Yet, we can intentionally stop this process and thus prevent the memory from entering awareness. Such suppression not only transiently hinders the retrieval of the memory, it can also induce forgetting.

A causal role of the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in random exploration. [PDF]
Sci RepAbstract Our brain faces the dilemma of exploiting familiar options to gain immediate rewards or exploring new options to increase probable future rewards, in many real-life decisions, and solves it by direct and random exploration. Previous studies show that these two explorative strategies have dissociable neural correlates in the ...

Does muscle strength predict working memory? A cross-sectional fNIRS study in older adults
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023 ObjectivePrevious research has primarily focused on the association between muscle strength and global cognitive function in older adults, while the connection between muscle strength and advanced cognitive function such as inhibition and working memory (

Differential contributions of dorso-ventral and rostro-caudal prefrontal white matter tracts to cognitive control in healthy older adults. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Prefrontal cortex mediates cognitive control by means of circuitry organized along dorso-ventral and rostro-caudal axes. Along the dorso-ventral axis, ventrolateral PFC controls semantic information, whereas dorsolateral PFC encodes task rules. Along the

The role of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in attentional bias [PDF]
Neuropsychologia, 2020 The DLPFC is thought to be critically involved in maintaining attention away from behaviourally irrelevant information, and in the establishment of attentional control settings. These play an important role in the phenomenon of top-down bias to features in the visual field - also known as attentional bias.
