Practice explains abolished behavioural adaptation after human dorsal anterior cingulate cortex lesions
The role of mid-cingulate cortex (MCC), also referred to as dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, in regulating cognitive control is a topic of primary importance in cognitive neuroscience. Although many studies have shown that MCC responds to cognitive demands, lesion studies in humans are inconclusive concerning the causal role of the MCC in the adaptation to these demands. By elegantly combining...
متن کاملAction Initiation in the Human Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex
The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) has previously been implicated in processes that influence action initiation. In humans however, there has been little direct evidence connecting dACC to the temporal onset of actions. We studied reactive behavior in patients undergoing therapeutic bilateral cingulotomy to determine the immediate effects of dACC ablation on action initiation. In a sim...
متن کاملHuman anterior cingulate cortex neurons encode cognitive and emotional demands.
The cortical mechanisms and substrates of cognitive and emotional demands are poorly understood. Lesion studies and functional imaging implicate the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). The caudal ACC (cACC) has been implicated in cognitive processes such as attention, salience, interference, and response competition, mostly on the basis of neuroimaging results. To test the hypothesis that individu...
متن کاملHuman anterior cingulate cortex neurons modulated by attention-demanding tasks.
Recent imaging studies have implicated the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in various cognitive functions, including attention. However, until now, there was no evidence for changes in neuronal activity of individual ACC neurons during performance of tasks that require attention and effortful thought. We hypothesized these neurons must exist in the human ACC. In this study, we present electroph...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal Spike Coding of Behavioral Adaptation in the Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex
The frontal cortex controls behavioral adaptation in environments governed by complex rules. Many studies have established the relevance of firing rate modulation after informative events signaling whether and how to update the behavioral policy. However, whether the spatiotemporal features of these neuronal activities contribute to encoding imminent behavioral updates remains unclear. We inves...
