Cortical Connectivity Maps Reveal Anatomically Distinct Areas in the Parietal Cortex of the Rat
A central feature of theories of spatial navigation involves the representation of spatial relationships between objects in complex environments. The parietal cortex has long been linked to the processing of spatial visual information and recent evidence

Background: The function of the primate’s posterior parietal cortex (PPC) in sensorimotor transformations is well-established, though in humans its complexity is still challenging.

Role of medio-dorsal frontal and posterior parietal neurons during auditory detection performance in rats. [PDF]
To further characterize the role of frontal and parietal cortices in rat cognition, we recorded action potentials simultaneously from multiple sites in the medio-dorsal frontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex of rats while they performed a two ...

Outcome contingency selectively affects the neural coding of outcomes but not of tasks [PDF]
Value-based decision-making is ubiquitous in every-day life, and critically depends on the contingency between choices and their outcomes. Only if outcomes are contingent on our choices can we make meaningful value-based decisions.

Background: Ketamine is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor blocking agent, which is used for induction and maintenance of anesthesia. It affects the cerebral cortex and has an impact on learning and memory functions; suggesting that any ...

Autobiographical memories are associated with activity in the hippocampus and the parietal cortex. Here the authors characterise the neural substrates for retrieving autobiographical memories from a large dataset, and identify a topography within the ...

A Case Report of Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease Using 18F-FDG PET and 18F-FBB PET
We describe a 40-year-old female patient who presented with sleep disturbance, intermittent headache, and gradual subjective cognitive decline. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) showed mild FDG hypometabolism in bilateral ...

Encoding of Intention and Spatial Location in the Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]
The posterior parietal cortex is functionally situated between sensory cortex and motor cortex. The responses of cells in this area are difficult to classify as strictly sensory or motor, since many have both sensory- and movement-related activities, as ...

Posterior parietal cortex dynamically ranks topographic signals via cholinergic influence
The hypothesis to be discussed in this review is that posterior parietal cortex is directly involved in selecting relevant stimuli and filtering irrelevant distractors.

Background: The negative symptoms of schizophrenia have been proposed to reflect prefrontal cortex dysfunction. However, this proposal has not been consistently supported in functional imaging studies, which have also used executive tasks that may not ...
