Microstimulation of the human dopaminergic midbrain causally reshapes value-based decision-making and happiness

Mar Yebra, Hristos S. Courellis, Sophia Cheng, Clayton Mosher, Zhongzheng Fu, Michele Tagliati, Adam N. Mamelak, Ueli Rutishauser

This study shows that microstimulation of the human midbrain alters decision-making and happiness by changing how losses are processed.

Autonomous error detection is enabled by conflict-dependent forward models in human medial frontal cortex

Jake Gavenas, Zhongzheng Fu, Adam N. Mamelak, Ueli Rutishauser

The paper identifies a mechanism in human medial frontal cortex for detecting errors without external feedback, showing preSMA encodes conflict-dependent forward models that align with error commission.

Conflicts are parametrically encoded: initial evidence for a cognitive space view to reconcile the debate of domain-general and domain-specific cognitive control

Guochun Yang, Haiyan Wu, Qi Li, Xun Liu, Zhongzheng Fu, Jiefeng Jiang

The paper proposes a cognitive space theory to reconcile domain-general and domain-specific cognitive control by showing conflicts are organized in a low-dimensional space based on similarity.

The geometry of domain-general performance monitoring in the human medial frontal cortex

Zhongzheng Fu, Danielle E. Beam, Jeffrey M. Chung, Chrystal M. Reed, Adam N. Mamelak, Ralph Adolphs, Ueli Rutishauser

This study investigates how neurons in the human medial frontal cortex represent cognitive conflict across tasks, showing both task-specific and generalized representations.
