Box 1, Figure I

Figure shows medial (top) and lateral (bottom) views of the macaque brain. Significant neuroanatomical connections to and from CGp are shown. Note that the figure does not represent a thorough diagramming of innervations, as CGp connects to a large number of brain regions. Generally, CGp neuroanatomy is similar in humans and macaques [73]. Abbreviations: VTA=ventral tegmental area; SNc=Substantia nigra pars compacta; NAC=nucleus accumbens; PFC=prefrontal cortex; FEF=frontal eye field; LIP=lateral intraparietal area; CGp=posterior cingulate cortex; ACC=anterior cingulate cortex; RSC=retrosplenial cortex; PHG=parahippocampal gyrus; OFC=orbitofrontal cortex; AMYG=amygdala
