The paper investigates how incentive valence engages different basal ganglia circuits during movement initiation, finding distinct neural patterns for reward and threat conditions.

This study investigates how orbitofrontal cortex circuits regulate reward predictions in different contexts using optogenetics and computational modeling in rats.

This study uses TREV to measure cardiac contractility during threat anticipation and finds it correlates with neural activity and emotional responses better than skin conductance responses.

The paper investigates how amygdala pathways to frontopolar cortex and medial temporal lobe modulate temporal memory for emotional events, finding distinct effects on memory accuracy and recency bias.

The paper shows cardiac-sympathetic outflow predicts action restraint during a task, with effects modulated by reward and loss conditions and participant success.

The paper examines how different regions of the lateral prefrontal cortex represent threat and controllability during threat anticipation, finding that the lateral frontal pole uniquely integrates these signals.

This study uses fMRI and Bayesian modeling to show that direction and distance in motor planning are encoded independently in different reference frames across the dorsomedial reach pathway.

The paper investigates how sensory context of initiation cues affects neural representations of goal-relevant features during movement tasks.

The paper identifies a functional open loop circuit (OLC) in humans connecting ventral putamen to motor cortical areas via subcortical limbic nodes using high-resolution fMRI.

The paper dissociates the functional roles of a novel open-loop circuit and a traditional closed-loop circuit in the human brain during incentive-based motor tasks.

The paper investigates whether heuristic decision-making in action selection correlates with skill in action execution, finding that heuristic users show skill advantages in spatially relevant aspects.

This study tests the PPIC model of hand choice using fMRI, finding that bilateral posterior parietal regions show increased activity during free hand selection and contralateral hand use.
