0 the front part of the brain, that is important in human behaviour such as planning, decision-making, and self-control:
A person's capacity to use his or her prefrontal cortex can be impaired under conditions of stress, fear, or anxiety.
The portion of the brain dedicated to learning and comprehension, the prefrontal cortex, requires concentration to process new information.
The electric current in electroconvulsive therapy stimulates not only the prefrontal cortex but the entire brain.
However, areas of the rostral anterior cingulate extending to the anterior medial prefrontal cortex were more activated by sad targets.
In addition, we replicated the findings of increased activation with the task in healthy volunteers in the premotor areas, ventral prefrontal cortex and parietal cortex.
The final subtraction resulted in activity in the anterior cingulate cortex, several portions of left anterior prefrontal cortex, and right inferior lateral cerebellum.
Cellular and circuit basis of working memory in prefrontal cortex of nonhuman primates.
Revisiting the role of the prefrontal cortex in the patho-physiology of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
