TL;DR: It is shown that, during motor learning, the BOLD response of unimodal motor cortical areas precedes the response in higher-order multimodal association areas, including posterior parietal cortex.

TL;DR: It is suggested that exposure to environmental radionuclides significantly alters vertebrate gut microbiota and is associated with an almost two-fold increase in the Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio.

TL;DR: It is indicated that local context has differential effects on P3b amplitude and latency, and exerts modality-independent effects on cognitive processing, as determined by both conventional averaging and single-trial analysis.

TL;DR: Observing the effects of orbitofrontal damage on emotional responses to unanticipated and anticipated acoustic startles and collecting a more extensive set of physiological measures, emotional facial behavior, and self-reported emotional experience suggested intact or enhanced emotional responses when such stimuli occur unexpectedly.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that the acquisition of a visuomotor skill would be accompanied by experience-dependent modulation of sensorimotor cortical activity, and that practice-related enhancement of movement-related event-related potentials supports experiencedependent alterations in the network subserving motor preparation.
