The role of the posterior cingulate cortex in cognition and disease
The posterior cingulate cortex is a highly connected and metabolically active brain region.
Recent studies suggest it has an important cognitive role, although there is no consensus …

The default network and self‐generated thought: Component processes, dynamic control, and clinical relevance
Though only a decade has elapsed since the default network (DN) was first defined as a
large‐scale brain system, recent years have brought great insight into the network's adaptive …

[HTML][HTML] The psychology and neuroscience of curiosity
Curiosity is a basic element of our cognition, but its biological function, mechanisms, and
neural underpinning remain poorly understood. It is nonetheless a motivator for learning …

Informatic parcellation of the network involved in the computation of subjective value
Understanding how the brain computes value is a basic question in neuroscience. Although
individual studies have driven this progress, meta-analyses provide an opportunity to test …

A tripartite view of the posterior cingulate cortex
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 …

Causal evidence for the processing of bodily self in the anterior precuneus
To probe the causal importance of the human posteromedial cortex (PMC) in processing the
sense of self, we studied a rare cohort of nine patients with electrodes implanted bilaterally …

Echoes of the brain within the posterior cingulate cortex
There is considerable uncertainty about the function of the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC).
The PCC is a major node within the default mode network (DMN) and has high metabolic …
