Subcortical nodes mediodorsal thalamus and ventral pallidum contribute to the default mode network regulation
Yilei Zhao, Tobias Kirschenhofer, Michael Harvey, Gregor Rainer · FENS Forum 2024
The transition from externally to internally focused attention is accompanied by the coactivation of a group of brain regions collectively known as the default mode network (DMN). While the DMN was initially considered as a cortical network, recent results have provided evidence that some subcortical structures are also involved in DMN regulation. Here we investigated the subcortical nodes, ventral pallidum (VP) and mediodorsal thalamus (MD), in DMN regulation in the tree shrew, a diurnal mammal that is a close relative of primates. We use wireless multichannel recordings and motion tracking,
