Convergent and selective representations of pain, appetitive processes, aversive processes, and cognitive control in the insula

The paper identifies convergent and selective functional zones in the insula using fMRI data, revealing a hierarchical convergence architecture across pain, appetitive, aversive, and cognitive control domains.

Dissociable memory modulation mechanisms facilitate fear amnesia at different timescales

The paper investigates how memory retrieval and extinction training trigger distinct mechanisms for fear amnesia at different timescales.

Hippocampal timestamp for goals

This study shows that the hippocampus represents goals based on their temporal distance, with current goals in the posterior and temporally removed goals in the anterior.

Neural Trajectories of Conceptually Related Events

The paper investigates how the brain represents conceptually related social interactions as neural trajectories in the hippocampus using fMRI data from a narrative-based social interaction game.

Neural patterns differentiate traumatic from sad autobiographical memories in PTSD

This study identifies distinct neural patterns in PTSD patients for traumatic versus sad memories, showing divergent hippocampal representations and symptom severity effects in the posterior cingulate cortex.

A generalizable computational mechanism underlying the interaction between momentary craving and decision-making

This study identifies a computational mechanism linking momentary craving and decision-making in substance use disorders, showing differential effects between alcohol and cannabis users.

Hippocampal Place-like Signal in Latent Space

The paper demonstrates hippocampal place-like signals in abstract, non-perceivable social spaces during naturalistic navigation-like behavior.

An interpretable connectivity-based decoding model for classification of chronic marijuana use

This paper develops an interpretable decoding model using functional connectivity to classify chronic marijuana users and non-users with high accuracy.

Affective flexibility without perceptual awareness

This study demonstrates that affective flexibility can occur unconsciously, as physiological responses adapt to reversed threat contingencies without conscious awareness of the stimuli.
