Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate neural circuits involved in social cognition, I injected anterograde virus tracers into area FST around the superior sulcus, known to be important in social cognition, of adult marmosets and examined axonal projection patterns. Area FST projected to prefrontal cortex (areas 10, 46, 8), premotor cortex (area 6), orbitofrontal cortex (area 12), temporal cortex (areas TE, TPO, MT), parietal cortex (areas PF, PFG), and insular cortex. I’m now preparing a manuscript about the results. Also I’m now collecting data related to social cognition behaviors. I’m going to submit a paper after finishing collection and analysis of the data.
