#parietalcortex — Public Fediverse posts

🧠 New paper by Safaai et al. (2025): parietal #cortex output populations show highly structured, task-dependent population geometry. Using multi-area recordings and circuit modeling, they show that #parietal populations display organized task-related patterns rather than uniform mixed coding, and that distinct output groups shape how decisions are routed to downstream targets:

What are the neural mechanisms behind short-term #memory errors? This study shows that they are primarily linked to a drift in neural activity in posterior #ParietalCortex, highlighting a need for stable neural representations to support accurate memory performance @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4p85IzD

How does sensory information construct representations in the human brain? This study shows that a network including prefrontal & posterior #ParietalCortex & anterior #insula has a key role in translating perceptual information to concepts, semantics & action plans #plosbiology https://plos.io/4lbXN2b

How do we decide between ambiguous options? @gvaldebenitoo @pablobilleke &co use fMRI & TMS-EEG to show that #ParietalCortex is causally involved in computational processes that underestimate uncertainty during #DecisionMaking under ambiguity. #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3Heobpr
