Neuroimaging research has been at the forefront of concerns regarding the failure of
experimental findings to replicate. In the study of brain-behavior relationships, past failures …

Evidence is provided for a new conceptualization of the connectivity and functions of the
cingulate cortex in emotion, action, and memory. The anterior cingulate cortex receives …

The orbitofrontal cortex and amygdala are involved in emotion and in motivation, but the
relationship between these functions performed by these brain structures is not clear. To …

Deep reinforcement learning (RL) methods have driven impressive advances in artificial
intelligence in recent years, exceeding human performance in domains ranging from Atari to …

The medial frontal cortex and adjacent orbitofrontal cortex have been the focus of
investigations of decision-making, behavioral flexibility, and social behavior. We review …

The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is one of the least understood regions of the cerebral
cortex. By contrast, the anterior cingulate cortex has been the subject of intensive …

To compare findings across species, neuroscience relies on cross-species homologies,
particularly in terms of brain areas. For cingulate cortex, a structure implicated in behavioural …

The ability to behave in ways that benefit other individuals' well-being is among the most
celebrated human characteristics crucial for social cohesiveness. Across mammalian …

Humans tend to discount information that undermines past choices and judgments. This
confirmation bias has significant impact on domains ranging from politics to science and …

Apathy is a debilitating syndrome associated with many neurological disorders, including
