CCN meeting | Emmanuel Procyk (Centre national de la recherche scientifique, France) invited by Clay Holroyd

A role of the midcingulate cortex in sustained behaviour

Multiple theories are proposed to account for the neural correlates of adaptive behaviours in the MCC and for the still unclear effects of MCC lesions on cognition and behaviour. In this presentation I will present recent chemogenetic experiments and neurophysiological recordings in monkeys supporting a role of MCC in providing a drive to sustain time extended, and in particular exploratory, behaviours.
