Motor sequence learning (MSL) is supported by dynamical interactions between hippocampal and striatal networks that are thought to be orchestrated by the prefrontal cortex. In the present study, we ...
Over the course of their lives, animals form associations between sensory stimuli and predicted threats or rewards. These associations can, in turn, shape the behaviors of animals, prompting them to ...
Associative learning is crucial for adapting to environmental changes. Interactions among neuronal populations involving the dorso-medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) are proposed to regulate associative ...
New research by Georgetown scientists shows how the brain rewires itself to automate learned tasks. The findings challenge a long-held understanding of how humans master complex skills, suggesting ...
New research reveals a mental workaround that is activated through repetition and experience.
A new study reveals that extensive training rewires the brain, offloading automated skills to the temporal cortex to allow ...
Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this ...
Researchers have long said that the human brain is not set up to multitask — but new research is challenging that ...
People between 18 and 25 can vote, enlist in the military, and sign binding contracts, yet the brain region responsible for ...
A new study links childhood trauma type and timing to altered fear brain circuits and IL-8/IL-17 inflammation.
Pitolisant, a histamine H3 receptor inverse agonist, improved recognition memory, working memory performance, and ...
