Spatio-temporal aspects of information processing in the cerebellar cortex
The cerebellum is a phylogenetically ancient part of the vertebrate brain, which is crucial for accurately timing complex motor tasks. Accumulating evidence suggests that the cerebellum is also involved in other tasks, such as sensory processing and cognitive tasks. The role of the cerebellum in this diverse set of tasks is heatedly debated. The cerebellum has been suggested to...
متن کاملProcessing of relevant information in the primate prefrontal cortex
Extracellular recordings of neural activity were made in areas around and ventral to the principal sulcus of the lateral prefrontal (PF) cortex in two monkeys (macacca mulatta). Activity was assessed during the performance of three visual memory tasks. In the first task, the sensory and mnemonic receptive fields were studied, by requiring monkeys to simultaneously remember both the identity and...
متن کاملTraining Improves Multitasking Performance by Increasing the Speed of Information Processing in Human Prefrontal Cortex
Our ability to multitask is severely limited: task performance deteriorates when we attempt to undertake two or more tasks simultaneously. Remarkably, extensive training can greatly reduce such multitasking costs. While it is not known how training alters the brain to solve the multitasking problem, it likely involves the prefrontal cortex given this brain region's purported role in limiting mu...

متن کاملContributions of postrhinal and perirhinal cortex to contextual information processing.
The role of the postrhinal cortex (POR) and the perirhinal cortex (PER) in processing relational or contextual information was examined with Pavlovian fear conditioning. Rats with electrolytic or neurotoxic lesions of the POR or PER were tested in 2 contextual fear conditioning paradigms. In Experiment 1, electrolytic lesions of the POR or PER produced impairments in contextual fear conditionin...
