A three-layered model of primate prefrontal cortex encodes identity and abstract categorical structure of behavioral sequences.
Categorical encoding is crucial for mastering large bodies of related sensory-motor experiences, but what is its neural substrate? In an effort to respond to this question, recent single-unit recording studies in the macaque lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) have demonstrated two characteristic forms of neural encoding of the sequential structure of the animal's sensory-motor experience. One pop...
متن کاملP27: Brain Network as a Pivotal Part in Intelligence Function
Neuroimaging findings have proposed that some brain regions including the precuneus, posterior cingulate, and medial prefrontal cortex play an essential role of a structural core in the brain. Network organization endures rapid alterations in development with changes in axonal synaptic connectivity, white matter volume, and the thickness of corresponding cortical regions. Structural maturation ...
متن کاملNeuronal Representation of Numerosity Zero in the Primate Parieto-Frontal Number Network
Neurons in the primate parieto-frontal network represent the number of visual items in a collection, but it is unknown whether this system encodes empty sets as conveying null quantity. We recorded from the ventral intraparietal area (VIP) and the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of monkeys performing a matching task including empty sets and countable numerosities as stimuli. VIP neurons encoded empty s...
متن کاملEffects of left prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation on the acquisition of contextual and cued fear memory
Objective(s): Behavioral and neuroimaging studies have shown that transcranial direct current stimulation, as a non-invasive neuromodulatory technique, beyond regional effects can modify functionally interconnected remote cortical and subcortical areas. In this study, we hypothesized that the induced changes in cortical excitability following the application of cathodal or anodal tDCS over the ...
متن کاملDifferential Beta-Band Event-Related Desynchronization during Categorical Action Sequence Planning
A primate study reported the existence of neurons from the dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex which fired prior to executing categorical action sequences. The authors suggested these activities may represent abstract level information. Here, we aimed to find the neurophysiological representation of planning categorical action sequences at the population level in healthy humans. Previous human stud...
