The Medial Frontal Cortex In Cognitive Control And Decision Making: Anatomy, Connectivity, Representations, Causal Contributions
Human Decisions Under The Microscopeour World Is So Complex, Yet Some People Manage To Adapt To Changes While Others Do Not. What Are The Neural Mechanisms With Which Our Brain Manages To Adapt Decisions And Actions To Any Obstacles That May Arise? The Erc-Funded Medicode Project Aims To Answer This Question. To Do So, It Will Use New Methods Like Brain Stimulation With Focused Ultrasound. The Core Area Of Interest Is The Posterior Medial Frontal Cortex – A Region Of The Brain Responsible For Human Cognitive Control That Enables Us To Evaluate Or Correct Our Choices In Front Of Obstacles Or Goals. The Findings Will Lead To An Important Advance In The Understanding Of Healthy And Pathologically Altered Brain Functions.
