Article by Kennis Shen. Neuroscience News – December 7, 2023. Original Research – Oxford Academic: Psychoradiology. Summary: A new study identified the right inferior frontal gyrus (rIFG) as a central regulator in the brain’s inhibitory control circuit. Using dynamic causal modeling and fMRI on a sample of 250 participants, the study reveals that the rIFG significantly influences the caudate nucleus and thalamus during response inhibition tasks. This research also shows gender differences in […] Click here to view original web page at neurosciencenews.com
