The role of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in the mechanism of consciousness is a matter of
active debate. Most theoretical and empirical investigations have focused on whether the …

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), which measures the
spontaneous fluctuations in the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal, is …

Brain structure scaffolds intrinsic function, supporting cognition and ultimately behavioral
flexibility. However, it remains unclear how a static, genetically controlled architecture …

The ever-increasing use of mouse models in preclinical neuroscience research calls for an
improvement in the methods used to translate findings between mouse and human brains …

In Consciousness We Trust is a synthesis of Hakwan Lau's 20-year research programme
exploring the neuroscience of consciousness. Discussing studies from his own laboratory …

The primate frontal lobe (FL) is sensitive to aging-related neurocognitive decline. However,
the aging-associated molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, using physiologically …

The salience network (SN) and default mode network (DMN) play a crucial role in cognitive
function. The SN, anchored in the anterior insular cortex (AI), has been hypothesized to …

Vocalizations play an important role in the daily life of primates and likely form the basis of
human language. Functional imaging studies have demonstrated that listening to voices …

Introduction Our limited understanding of the mechanisms that trigger the emergence of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has contributed to the lack of interventions that stop, prevent, or …

In this narrative review article, we discuss the role of sleep deprivation (SD) in memory
processing in rodent models. Numerous studies have examined the effects of SD on …
