Very proud of my research assistants(first and second authors) putting this one together! 2014_UCLA_Science_Day_Poster Kommers, C.1,+, Raccah, O.1,+, Reggente, N.,1 Rissman, J1,2 Although the hippocampus is well known to contribute to the storage and retrieval of long-term memories, emerging data suggests that the hippocampus may also contribute to the online maintenance of task-relevant representations in […]

Westphal, A.J., Reggente, N., Ito, K., Fortuna, W.H., Nawabi, Y., Milstein, M., & Rissman, J. SfN_2013_Poster SfN 2013 Abstract Episodic memory and analogical reasoning tasks tend to engage many common frontoparietal structures, perhaps owing to their common demands for declarative memory retrieval and relational integration. Regions of the medial temporal lobe (MTL), well known to […]

Westphal, A.J., Reggente, N., Ito, K., Fortuna, W., & Rissman, J. HBM_2013_Poster HBM 2013 Abstract Resting state fMRI connectivity analyses have identified a number of distinct functional brain networks, including the fronto-parietal task control network (FPTCN), the dorsal attention network (DAN), and the default mode network (DMN) (e.g., Vincent et al., 2008, Power et al., […]
Shared and distinct contributions of rostral prefrontal cortex to analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval: Insights from fMRI functional connectivity and multivariate pattern analyses
Posted on May 30, 2014 Leave a Comment
Westphal, A.J., Reggente, N., Nawabi, Y., & Rissman, J. CNS_2013_Poster CNS 2013 Abstract The rostral prefrontal cortex (RPFC), positioned at the apex of the prefrontal processing hierarchy, has been implicated in a diverse array of high-level cognitive processes including analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval—tasks that may share demands for relational integration. However, because […]
