Brain abnormalities may be a nonspecific antecedent for sexual homicide offending. Studies suggest elevated prevalence of ...

As recently as 2007, a survey of liberal and radical criminologists found they attribute crime mainly to such causes as an ...

A new study has found that any alteration to specific creative circuits in the brain can release a spur of creativity. While ...

A new study has found that men recovering from alcohol use problems tend to have less brain tissue in areas linked to ...

Multicore devices deliver highly scalable performance and low power, and so they can offer high levels of design flexibility. The ARM® Cortex™-A9 processors are the latest and highest performance ARM ...

This is associated with valuation processes in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, which may filter information in a valence-dependent manner, leading to skewed expectations. Understanding these ...

Here, authors show that treadmill training enhanced input from the primary motor region to the medial prefrontal cortex, via the ventromedial thalamic nuclei.

Humans and other animals can maintain constant payoffs in an uncertain environment by steadily re-evaluating and flexibly adjusting current strategy, which largely depends on the interactions between ...

Introduction: Studies suggest an involvement of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) in reward prediction and processing, with reward-based learning relying on neural activity in response to ...

Whether comparable sensitive periods exist for non-sensory cortices, such as the prefrontal cortex, in which alterations in activity determine adult circuit function and behavior is still an active ...

It uses a variety of cutting-edge tools to dissect the microcircuits of the prefrontal cortex. This report is novel, timely, and important. It will be of broad interest to neuroscientists studying ...
