Brain’s flexible hub network helps humans adapt

New research from Washington University in St. Louis offers compelling evidence that a well-connected core brain network based in the lateral prefrontal cortex and the posterior parietal cortex — parts of the brain most changed evolutionarily since our common ancestor with chimpanzees — contains «flexible hubs» that coordinate the brain’s responses to novel cognitive challenges.
