Multi-session tDCS over the posterior parietal cortex and associative memory. by Luka Juras, Marina Martinčević, Uroš Konstantinović, Saša R Filipović, Andrea Vranić, Jovana Bjekić

“…Nonetheless, enough evidence suggests that tDCS over the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) can improve AM performance. This study aimed to investigate the cumulative effects of multiple anodal tDCS over the PPC on AM performance alongside item memory and verbal fluency. …”

Neuromuscular Plasticity: Disentangling Stable and Variable Motor Maps in the Human Sensorimotor Cortex by Dominic Kraus, Alireza Gharabaghi

“…The intraclass correlation coefficient revealed long-term reliability of motor maps with relevant interhemispheric differences. The sensorimotor cortex and nonprimary motor areas of the dominant hemisphere showed more extended and more stable corticospinal connectivity. …”

Diverse neuronal activity patterns contribute to the control of distraction in the prefrontal and parietal cortex. by Panagiotis Sapountzis, Alexandra Antoniadou, Georgia G Gregoriou

“…We recorded neuronal responses from 2 regions in the prefrontal and parietal cortex of macaques, the frontal eye field (FEF) and the lateral intraparietal (LIP) area, during a visual search task, in the presence and absence of a salient distractor. …”

The medial and lateral orbitofrontal cortex jointly represent the cognitive map of task space by Liwei Tan, Yidan Qiu, Lixin Qiu, Shuting Lin, Jinhui Li, Jiajun Liao, Yuting Zhang, Wei Zou, Ruiwang Huang

“…Abstract A cognitive map is an internal model of the world’s causal structure, crucial for adaptive behaviors. The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is central node to decision-making and cognitive map representation. …”

Consumption of a High-Fat Diet Alters Perineuronal Nets in the Prefrontal Cortex by P. M. Dingess, J. H. Harkness, M. Slaker, Z. Zhang, S. S. Wulff, B. A. Sorg, T. E. Brown

“…Our previous work demonstrates that sustained consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) attenuates spine density in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Whether HFD promotes structural adaptation among inhibitory cells of the PFC is presently unknown. …”

ARM-Cortex M3-Based Two-Wheel Robot for Assessing Grid Cell Model of Medial Entorhinal Cortex: Progress towards Building Robots with Biologically Inspired Navigation-Cognitive Maps by J. Cuneo, L. Barboni, N. Blanco, M. del Castillo, J. Quagliotti

“…This article presents the implementation and use of a two-wheel autonomous robot and its effectiveness as a tool for studying the recently discovered use of grid cells as part of mammalian’s brains space-mapping circuitry (specifically the medial entorhinal cortex). A proposed discrete-time algorithm that emulates the medial entorhinal cortex is programed into the robot. …”
