Brain Areas

Question 1

Cerebellar Areas

Answer 1

Palleocerebellum: Anterior Lobules (1-5): Connects to sensorimotor cortices
Neocerebellum: Posterior Lobules (6-9/10): Connects to sensorimotor and association cortices
Floculonodular: Vestibuloccular reflex

Question 2

Ventral PFC

Answer 2

Reward-based reversal learning. Cools&Robbins 2001.

Question 3

Orbitofrontal cotex

Answer 3

Coding of reward magnitude, and relative reward preference.

O’Doherty and Andrews 2001. Tremblay & Schultz 1999

Question 4

ACC

Answer 4

Integration of reward, motor and goal-relevant info. Task switching. Holroyd and Coles 2002

Question 5

Posterior Parietal Cortex

Answer 5

Sensory integration to help with planning movements. Damage produces spatial and memory deficits

Question 6

FOF

Answer 6

Voluntary eye movements. Damage causes deviation towards side of damage (and contra paralysis).

Question 7

MDN

Answer 7

Pain Processing. Connections to Amygdala and ACC and hippo. And PFC in (dlPFC for primates).

Question 8

Centromedian

Answer 8

Attention and Arousal. Electrical Stim can cause seizures and severe damage can cause mutism**

Question 9

PFN (paper as well) and projections

Answer 9

Brown and Ragozzino 2010: PFN required for a shift away from biased actions. Lesions here show decreased ACh release in DM striatum and rats become perserverative.

Question 10

dlPFC

Answer 10

End point for the dorsal stream. Connected with much of neocrotex and caudate head of BG. Motor planning organization and regulation. Areas 46 and 9.
