A computational model of decision making suggests that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex's role in self-control is more associated with evidence accumulation processes than with inhibition or modulation of value.

Across primates, volumes of specific brain regions relate to specific socio-ecological factors, bridging the gap between neuro-cognitive operations from laboratory studies and challenges primates face in their natural environment.

Two regions of the frontal lobe – the anterior cingulate cortex and, unexpectedly, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex – show coordinated rhythmic activity during REM sleep.

Implicit defensive reactions to a learned threat-predictive cue and novel stimuli may be significantly downregulated through a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation procedure over the medial anterior prefrontal cortex in humans.

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex integrates concurrent externally and internally generated predictions of task demand to guide information processing, while the medial prefrontal cortex corrects its prediction error based on actual task demand.

Noninvasive stimulation of hippocampal networks increases connectivity in a functionally-specific manner that is highly relevant to effective episodic memory performance that depends on the targeted network.

Reward and punishment learning is represented in partly overlapping regions of the brain while relying on specific intra- and inter-regional interactions.

Perinatal brain injury is associated with altered dopaminergic function and reduced hippocampal volume in adulthood in humans.

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex represents different conflict types within an organized cognitive space of cognitive control, positioning more similar conflict types closer together.

Experiments in macaques and humans reveal time-varying changes in prefrontal cortex activity that occur during decisions based on costs and benefits.
