Specializations for decision making in primate prefrontal cortex
Some of the most sophisticated behaviors of primates, including humans, depend on the granular prefrontal cortex (PFC), yet there are few well defined and experimentally verified functional specializations within the primate PFC, especially at a causal level. Recent work from our laboratory has demonstrated contrasting specializations of the ventrolateral PFC (VLPFC) and the orbital PFC (also known as orbitofrontal cortex, OFC). We found that the OFC and the VLPFC play complementary roles in updating representat...

Developing Therapies for Ras-Driven Tumors
NCI's Center for Cancer Research (CCR) Grand Rounds
Dr. Cichowski ’ s research goals are to elucidate mechanisms that drive human cancer, identify novel therapeutic targets, and generate robust animal models to facilitate these efforts. A related goal is to establish collaborative relationships with clinicians to translate basic scientific findings into clinical trials. Her principal scientific interest is to understand how the Ras pathway, which is deregulated in the majority of human cancers, promotes tumorigenesis. She and her colleagues have been investigating this question in nervous system tumors, prostate, lung, m...
