Intention, action planning, and decision making in parietal-frontal circuits.

8 Sep 2009 The posterior parietal cortex and frontal cortical areas to which it connects are responsible for sensorimotor transformations. This review covers new research on four components of this transformation process: planning, decision making, forward ...

Taste-guided decisions differentially engage neuronal ensembles across gustatory cortices.

7 Sep 2009 Much remains to be understood about the differential contributions from primary and secondary sensory cortices to sensory-guided decision making. To address this issue we simultaneously recorded activity from neuronal ensembles in primary [gustatory ...

Reward modulates attention independently of action value in posterior parietal cortex.

7 Sep 2009 While numerous studies have explored the mechanisms of reward-based decisions (the choice of action based on expected gain), few have asked how reward influences attention (the selection of information relevant for a decision). Here we show that a ...

Representation of goal and movements without overt motor behavior in the human motor cortex: a transcranial magnetic stimulation study.

7 Sep 2009 We recorded motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) to transcranial magnetic stimulation from the right opponens pollicis (OP) muscle while participants observed an experimenter operating two types of pliers: pliers opened by the extension of the fingers and ...

Neuroanatomical correlates of impaired decision-making and facial emotion recognition in early Parkinson's disease.

2 Sep 2009 Decision-making and recognition of emotions are often impaired in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and the amygdala are critical structures subserving these functions. This study was designed to test whether ...

Visual recalibration of auditory spatial perception: two separate neural circuits for perceptual learning.

2 Sep 2009 A remarkable example of rapid perceptual learning is the visual recalibration of auditory spatial perception, which can result in either a bias (ventriloquism after-effect) or an improvement (multisensory enhancement) in auditory localization. Here, ...

"Real-time" obstacle avoidance in the absence of primary visual cortex.

31 Aug 2009 When we reach toward objects, we easily avoid potential obstacles located in the workspace. Previous studies suggest that obstacle avoidance relies on mechanisms in the dorsal visual stream in the posterior parietal cortex. One fundamental question ...

Right ventromedial and dorsolateral prefrontal cortices mediate adaptive decisions under ambiguity by integrating choice utility and outcome evaluation.

31 Aug 2009 The Iowa gambling task (IGT) is one of the most influential behavioral paradigms in reward-related decision making and has been, most notably, associated with ventromedial prefrontal cortex function. However, performance in the IGT relies on a ...

Impaired category fluency in medial temporal lobe amnesia: the role of episodic memory.

31 Aug 2009 Memory tasks are often classified as semantic or episodic, but recent research shows that these types of memory are highly interactive. Category fluency, for example, is generally considered to reflect retrieval from semantic memory, but behavioral ...

Adapting to dynamic stimulus-response values: differential contributions of inferior frontal, dorsomedial, and dorsolateral regions of prefrontal cortex to decision making.

31 Aug 2009 Dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), and inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) have all been implicated in resolving decision conflict whether this conflict is generated by having to select between responses of ...
