The paper investigates how the entorhinal and hippocampal circuits coordinate during navigation, finding 3-fold hippocampal periodicity phase-locked with entorhinal 6-fold periodicity, and shows this is modeled by a PhaseSync model.

This study uses iEEG to identify distinct brain circuits involved in human escape responses, showing the reactive fear circuit dominates during rapid attacks while the cognitive fear circuit processes threat information.

The paper investigates how the brain encodes safety by examining neural responses in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex during different safety estimation tasks.

The paper investigates how the medial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) processes spatial margin of safety decisions, showing distinct roles for anterior and posterior regions in threat predictability and safety signaling.

This study investigates how dishonesty affects memory and metacognition using fMRI, finding neural correlates in the orbitofrontal cortex and prefrontal cortex.

This study uses resting-state fMRI to identify neural patterns predicting motivated dishonesty through functional connectivity analysis.

The paper shows humans use socially adjusted value strategies in foraging, with fMRI revealing mid-cingulate and ventromedial prefrontal cortex encoding this value.

This study investigates how the human brain searches for safety by manipulating attentional set to cues associated with shock probability, showing increased vmPFC activity under a safe attentional set.

This study investigates how fast and slow escape decisions in humans are mediated by distinct fear circuits using neuroimaging and computational modeling.
