What does the retrosplenial cortex do?

6 Oct 2009 The past decade has seen a transformation in research on the retrosplenial cortex (RSC). This cortical area has emerged as a key member of a core network of brain regions that underpins a range of cognitive functions, including episodic memory, ... Read more...

Neural correlates of value, risk, and risk aversion contributing to decision making under risk.

5 Oct 2009 Decision making under risk is central to human behavior. Economic decision theory suggests that value, risk, and risk aversion influence choice behavior. Although previous studies identified neural correlates of decision parameters, the contribution ... Read more...

Reduced limbic connections may contraindicate subgenual cingulate deep brain stimulation for intractable depression.

29 Sep 2009 In this study, the authors performed deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (SACC) in a patient with a history of bipolar disorder. After a right thalamic stroke, intractable depression without mood elevation or a ... Read more...
