As indicated by the profound cognitive impairments caused by cholinergic receptor
antagonists, cholinergic neurotransmission has a vital role in cognitive function, specifically …

Neuromodulatory systems, including the noradrenergic, serotonergic, dopaminergic, and
cholinergic systems, track environmental signals, such as risks, rewards, novelty, effort, and …

Abstract Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have attracted enormous research interest due to
temporal information processing capability, low power consumption, and high biological …

Why does performing certain tasks cause the aversive experience of mental effort and
concomitant deterioration in task performance? One explanation posits a physical resource …

How can we disentangle the neural basis of phenomenal consciousness from the neural
machinery of the cognitive access that underlies reports of phenomenal consciousness? We …

Working memory is characterized by neural activity that persists during the retention interval
of delay tasks. Despite the ubiquity of this delay activity across tasks, species and …

Music evokes complex emotions beyond pleasant/unpleasant or happy/sad dichotomies
usually investigated in neuroscience. Here, we used functional neuroimaging with …

Working memory is fundamental to cognition, allowing one to hold information" in mind." A
defining characteristic of working memory is its flexibility: we can hold anything in mind …

Associating temporally discontinuous elements is crucial for the formation of episodic and
working memories that depend on the hippocampal-entorhinal network. However, the neural …

There is currently an intense debate about the nature of recognition memory and about the
roles of medial temporal lobe subregions in recognition memory processes. At a larger level …
