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 …

Among the neuromodulators that regulate prefrontal cortical circuit function, the
catecholamine transmitters norepinephrine (NE) and dopamine (DA) stand out as powerful …

Anxiety is the most prevalent psychiatric problem of our time. Decades of research have
gone into probing its mysteries and developing treatments. But what if we've been thinking …

Transient sexual experiences can have long-lasting effects on behavioral decisions, but the
neural coding that accounts for this change is unclear. We found that the ejaculation …

The hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels are voltage-gated
ion channels that critically modulate neuronal activity. Four HCN subunits (HCN1–4) have …

The hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels belong to the
superfamily of voltage‐gated potassium ion channels. They are, however, activated by …

Importance The Consortium on the Genetics of Schizophrenia (COGS) uses quantitative
neurophysiological and neurocognitive endophenotypes with demonstrated deficits in …

Periodic episodes of excessive alcohol consumption (“binge drinking”) occur frequently
among adolescents, and early binge drinking is associated with an increased risk of alcohol …

During goal-directed behavior, the prefrontal cortex (PFC) exerts top-down control over
numerous cortical and subcortical regions. PFC dysfunction has been linked to many …

This paper explores memory from a cognitive neuroscience perspective and examines
associated neural mechanisms. It examines the different types of memory: working …
