Neuroscience Trend Forecasters

As 2022 draws to a close, the SNL Trend Forecasters have agreed to divulge their predictions for the most — and the least— exciting research fads for the New Year.The Neurocritic: How do you guys predict today ' s most popular neuroscience trends? Trend Forecasters: Oh, well we have 4,000 computers, they ' re all big they all make charts and they beep LOUD.TN: Let ' s get started!In:posterior cingulate cortexHey Posterior Cingulate — we see you! You ' re fresh, you ' re mysterious, you ' re misunderstood. But we know you exist far beyond the default fashion mode. Thenew tripartite view proposes......that the broader PCC region contains three major subregions — the dorsal PCC, ventral PCC and retrosplenial cortex — that respectively support the integration of executive, mnemonic and spatial processing systems. This tripartite subregional view reconciles inconsistencies in prior unitary theories of PCC function and offers promising new avenues for pro gress.Foster et al. (2022) Out:anterior cingulate cortexGet behind me, you tired brain region. Think you can do everything? Well the list of your supposed functions is wildly implausible. We ' ve looked at PubMed and foundmental fatigue, prediction ofnon-violent felony rearrest in women, amyloid- β-related increases in empathic concern,experimental odontogenic pain,gravitational perception,chronic itch,RDoC social constructs, and modulation of synaptic plasticity in exercise interventions forpost-str...
