New paper published in eLife
Dan Bang’s paper entitled “Private-public mappings in human prefrontal cortex” has been published recently in eLife. Dan used confidence estimation as a model system to ask how private (“what I feel”) and public (“what I say”) aspects of mental states are separately encoded, and how different subregions of prefrontal cortex may control these private-public mappings. We think that this process is important for flexible social behaviour, and a Twitter thread summarising our findings is below. This is the first paper from Dan’s Sir Henry Wellcome Fellowship focusing on the neurobiological basis of social behaviour. Congratulations Dan!
