Different prefrontal areas contribute in distinctly different ways to rule-guided behaviour in the context of a Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) analog for macaques. For example, causal evidence from circumscribed lesions in NHPs reveals that dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is necessary to maintain a reinforced abstract rule in working memory, orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is needed to rapidly update representations of rule value, and the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) plays a key role in cognitive control and integrating information for correct and incorrect trials over recent outcomes

Electronic interfaces to the retina represent an exciting development in science, engineering, and medicine – an opportunity to exploit our knowledge of neural circuitry and function to restore or even enhance vision. However, although existing devices demonstrate proof of principle in treating incurable blindness, they produce limited visual function. Some of the reasons for this can be understood based on the precise and specific neural circuitry that mediates visual signaling in the retina. Consideration of this circuitry suggests that future devices may need to operate at single-cell, sing
