Functions of delay-period activity in the prefrontal cortex and mnemonic scotomas revisited

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Working memory is one of key concepts to understand functions of the prefrontal cortex. Delay-period activity is an important neural correlate to understand the role of working memory in prefrontal functions.

Designed Biomaterial‐Enhanced Cell Transplantation for Neural Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
Biomaterials offer a promising solution for cell transplantation in the central nervous system by creating a protective environment that enhances cell survival, integration, and functional recovery in preclinical models of neurological disorders. ABSTRACT Cell transplantation therapy in the central nervous system is hindered by limited survival and ...

The topology of connections between rat prefrontal and temporal cortices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Understanding the structural organization of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is an important step toward determining its functional organization. Here we investigated the organization of PFC using different neuronal tracers.

Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Control Encoding and Retrieval of Associative Recognition Memory through Plasticity in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) expressed in the medial prefrontal cortex have critical roles in cognitive function. However, whether nAChRs are required for associative recognition memory and the mechanisms by which nAChRs may ...

The role of prefrontal cortex in psychopathy [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in the Neurosciences, 2012
Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by remorseless and impulsive antisocial behavior. Given the significant societal costs of the recidivistic criminal acti\xadvity associated with the disorder, there is a pressing need for more effective treatment strategies and, hence, a better understanding of the psychobiological mechanisms ...

Unraveling Multimodal Brain Signatures: Deciphering Transdiagnostic Dimensions of Psychopathology in Adolescents

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study, utilizing two large‐cohort datasets, employs interpretable neural networks. It demonstrates that incorporating brain morphology and functional and structural networks enhances predictive accuracy for general psychopathology and its dimensions.

Prefrontal Cortex Motivated Cognitive Architecture for Multiple Robots [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
In this paper, we introduce a cerebral cortex inspired architecture for robots in which we have mapped hierarchical cortical representation of human brain to logic flow and decision making process. Our work focuses on the two major features of human cognitive process, viz.

Hyper-connectivity and hyper-plasticity in the medial prefrontal cortex in the valproic acid animal model of autism

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2008
The prefrontal cortex has been extensively implicated in autism to explain deficits in executive and other higher-order functions related to cognition, language, sociability and emotion.

Homelessness and Housing Instability Among Care Leavers in Australia: Exploring Housing Pathways and Best Practice Housing Models

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A significant proportion of young people exiting Out‐of‐Home Care (OOHC) encounter substantial challenges in securing housing, often leading to homelessness within a few months after leaving care. All Australian jurisdictions have now approved extended care programs up to 21 years; however, none of them currently offer these young people ...

Detecting Resting-state Neural Connectivity Using Dynamic Network Analysis on Multiband fMRI Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
This paper describes an approach of using dynamic Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis to estimate the connectivity networks from resting-state fMRI data measured by a multiband EPI sequence. Two structural equation models were estimated at each voxel with respect to the sensory-motor network and default-mode network.
