Interesting Pre-Prints for the week of 12/6/2021

Trial-by-trial fluctuations in amygdala activity track motivational enhancement of desirable sensory evidence during perceptual decision-making

The amygdala complex is a valence processing center, it tries to match the salience signal with an appropriate level of response based on external stimuli. This study supports this model by demonstrating level of engagement being activation dependent.

Brain-wide neural co-activations in resting human

Yeah! Moving the right direction! The more we break away from the phrenology like localization model, the closer we get to understanding the actual mechanics of these processes.

Cerebellar contributions to a brainwide network for flexible behavior

And to think, 10 years ago cerebellectomies were pretty run of mill in animal models for cognition research. Research like this goes a long way toward supporting the idea that the cerebellum and cerebrum serve a roughly equal purpose, as downstream calculation centers for brainstem and limbic/basal ganglia circuits.

Transparent and Conformal Microcoil Arrays for Spatially Selective Neuronal Activation

40 micron TMS? Golfham.

Intermittent brain network reconfigurations and the resistance to social media influence

People who “know” things are easily fooled.
