Nature - Opponent control of reinforcement by striatal dopamine and serotonin

Timescales of neural activity are diverse across and within brain areas, and experimental observations suggest that neural timescales reflect information in dynamic environments. However, these observ...

5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) is a psychedelic drug known for its uniquely profound effects on subjective experience, reliably eradicating the perception of time, space, and the self. H...

How do humans maintain information in their visual working memory (VWM) in the presence of distractors? This study shows that the human occipitotemporal and posterior parietal cortices orthogonalize t...

Social association areas are connected to amygdala nuclei involved in social behavior, including basolateral and medial nuclei.

Around the world, early-career researchers are working to improve research culture and practice by addressing systemic challenges. This consensus statement provides expert guidance for individuals inv...

Background Functional cognitive disorder (FCD) may be common after a concussion, and no evidence-based treatment options are available. The current study evaluated the feasibility of a novel cognitive...

Psychedelics hold promise as alternate treatments for neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the neural mechanisms by which they drive adaptive behavioral effects remain unclear. We isolated the specifi...

The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and ventromedial-prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) play a key role in decision-making and encode task states in addition to expected value. We review evidence suggesting a conne...

ALT: a man with glasses and suspenders is standing in front of a group of people and says science !!

Task demands are a primary determiner of behavior and neurophysiology. Here the authors discuss how understanding their influence through multitask studies and tests of generalization is the key to ar...
