Increased firing irregularity as an emergent property of neural-state transition in monkey prefrontal cortex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Flexible behaviors are organized by complex neural networks in the prefrontal cortex. Recent studies have suggested that such networks exhibit multiple dynamical states, and can switch rapidly from one state to another.

Abnormal white matter tracts resembling pencil fibers involving prefrontal cortex (Brodmann area 47) in autism: a case report. [PDF]
, 2016 BackgroundAutism is not correlated with any neuropathological hallmark as the brain of autistic individuals lack defined lesions. However, previous investigations have reported cortical heterotopias and local distortion of the cytoarchitecture of the ...

Brain, 1999 By Joaquin M. Fuster. 1997. Pp. 352. Philadelphia: Lippincott-Raven.Price £60. ISBN 0-397-51849-8. In the first edition of The Prefrontal Cortex the author set out his hypothesis concerning the functions of the prefrontal association cortex. These are conceived as being not modality specific but as integrative in nature, orchestrating the \`sensory ...

The hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and perirhinal cortex are critical to incidental order memory. [PDF]
, 2020 Considerable research in rodents and humans indicates the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex are essential for remembering temporal relationships among stimuli, and accumulating evidence suggests the perirhinal cortex may also be involved.

Sensory over-responsivity and social cognition in ASD: Effects of aversive sensory stimuli and attentional modulation on neural responses to social cues. [PDF]
, 2018 Sensory over-responsivity (SOR) is a common condition in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) that is associated with greater social impairment. However, the mechanisms through which sensory stimuli may affect social functioning are not well understood.

Recent Saccadic Eye Movement Research Uncovers Patterns of Cognitive Dysfunction in Schizophrenia. [PDF]
, 2001 The frontal cortex and the subcortical areas of the brain play a major role in the control of thought and action. Eye movements are increasingly used in neuropsychological research to explore the executive and sensorimotor functions of such neural ...

Neural signatures of cognitive flexibility and reward sensitivity following nicotinic receptor stimulation in dependent smokers : a randomized trial [PDF]
, 2017 IMPORTANCE Withdrawal from nicotine is an important contributor to smoking relapse. Understanding how reward-based decision making is affected by abstinence and by pharmacotherapies such as nicotine replacement therapy and varenicline tartrate may aid ...
