Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex Psychlopedia -- Key concepts -- Biological concepts -- Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex Jump to the comments Section Overview The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, together with other connected areas, is assumed to be important in working memory and executive function--including the regulation of thinking and action. Damage to this region provokes dysexecutive syndrome. Roles of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex The difference between the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex aligns to the disparity between the dorsal and ventral pathways in the cortex, according to O'Reilly (2010). The dorsal pathways primarily terminate in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex instead of the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex. The ventral pathways primarily terminate in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex instead of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. O'Reilly (2010) accumulated considerable evidence to support this contention. Memory Mood

Biohack Yourself | Transcend Your Limits Why you should learn to lucid dream | Yes, I Can! by Robin Nixon If you’ve never experienced it then you may find it hard to understand what lucid dreaming is all about. In fact you may be thoroughly sceptical and dismiss the whole thing as silly nonsense. But I can tell you from personal experience that lucid dreams are very real and something that many millions of people regularly enjoy. Note: Due to the huge amount of interest that this post has generated I am now seriously considering writing a book on the subject, and I would welcome input from anyone with an interest. These types of dreams are hyper-real in that when you experience one it is bursting with vibrant colour, there’s often marvellous music playing in the background (if you listen for it), the air is the freshest and sweetest you’ve ever smelled, and you are the healthiest you have ever been (or could ever be). Lucid dreaming is when you experience full consciousness while dreaming. When you ‘wake up’ inside a dream you can consciously appreciate just how wonderful dreams really are.

Brain Zaps Can Trigger Lucid Dreams Lucid dreams, in which people are aware of and can control their dreams, are rare. But now scientists have found they can induce this weird state of mind in people by zapping their brains with a specific frequency of electricity. "I never thought this would work," said study researcher Dr. John Allan Hobson, a psychiatrist and longtime sleep researcher at Harvard University. The results showed that when the inexperienced dreamers were zapped with a current of 40 Hertz, 77 percent of the time these participants reported having what were described as lucid dreams. "They were really excited," said study researcher Ursula Voss, of J.W. Dream waves A lucid dream can be thought of as an overlap between two states of consciousness — the one that exists in normal dreaming, and the one during wakefulness, which involves higher levels of awareness and control. Such overlap is also reflected in the brain waves that researchers can detect using electroencephalography, or EEG. Science of consciousness

New Online Magazine Bridges the Divide Between Art and Science Detail of the cover of the October 2013 issue of SciArt in America, showing the “Observe” exhibition at Williamson Gallery in Pasadena (photograph by Steven A. Heller/Art Center College of Design) It’s no revelation that science and art have long been linked, the curiosity about the workings of the world aligned with artistic creativity. One of these voices — a bimonthly online magazine called SciArt in America — launched in August and published their third issue in December. ”When I came to New York I was sure I would find a science-art community right away, but it was not that easy,” Julia Buntaine, editor-in-chief of the publication, told Hyperallergic. “I decided to focus on [SciArt] for two reasons — firstly, I am a science-based artist myself, so it was a very natural extension of my practice and interests and secondly, it is obvious to me that the SciArt movement is on the rise here, even more so internationally,” she stated.
