    Simon Killcross
    School of Psychology, Cardiff University, Cardiff, UK
    Cereb Cortex 13:400-8. 2003
    ..This double-dissociation suggests that the prelimbic region is responsible for voluntary response performance and the infralimbic cortex mediates the incremental ability of extended training to override this goal-directed behaviour...

    School of Psychology, Cardiff University, Cardiff, UK
    Brain Res Bull 56:49-53. 2001
    ..Lesions of the BLA reduced the effect of preexposure, disrupting LI. This result suggests that the BLA can play a crucial role in LI. The possible involvement of interactions between BLA and entorhinal cortex in LI is discussed...
