Frontal cortex and the hierarchical control of behavior
The frontal lobes are important for cognitive control, yet their functional organization remains
controversial. An influential class of theory proposes that the frontal lobes are organized …

Corticostriatal regulation of language functions
The role of corticostriatal circuits in language functions is unclear. In this review, we consider
evidence from language learning, syntax, and controlled language production and …

Uncovering hidden brain state dynamics that regulate performance and decision-making during cognition
Human cognition is influenced not only by external task demands but also latent mental
processes and brain states that change over time. Here, we use novel Bayesian switching …

Conjunctive representations that integrate stimuli, responses, and rules are critical for action selection
People can use abstract rules to flexibly configure and select actions for specific situations,
yet how exactly rules shape actions toward specific sensory and/or motor requirements …

Subspace partitioning in the human prefrontal cortex resolves cognitive interference
The human prefrontal cortex (PFC) constitutes the structural basis underlying flexible
cognitive control, where mixed-selective neural populations encode multiple task features to …

Dynamic trial-by-trial recoding of task-set representations in the frontoparietal cortex mediates behavioral flexibility
Cognitive flexibility forms the core of the extraordinary ability of humans to adapt, but the
precise neural mechanisms underlying our ability to nimbly shift between task sets remain …

Cognitive overcontrol as a trait marker in anorexia nervosa? Aberrant task-and response-set switching in remitted patients.
Individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) often present inflexible behaviors and rigid thinking
styles, which may contribute to disorder maintenance. Studies of set shifting have …
