This study shows navigational variables are widely encoded in prefrontal cortex of macaques during foraging, challenging the idea that such encoding is limited to the hippocampal complex.

The paper analyzes neural activity in macaques during a foraging task to show how prefrontal regions represent and control actions in a modular and hierarchical manner.

The paper examines neural coding for value in six brain regions and finds no explicit value neurons, but shows value is encoded implicitly through orthogonal yet linked population subspaces.

This study examines how neurons in reward regions of macaques encode safe and risky offers during a gambling task, finding distinct response subspaces for each type of offer.

The paper examines hierarchical organization in medial prefrontal cortex regions during risky choices in macaques, finding increased decodability and longer timescales along a specific pathway.
