The theory proposes that cognitive control amounts to optimising a precision parameter, which acts as a control signal and balances the contributions of deliberative and habitual components of action selection. To illustrate the theory, we simulate a driving scenario in which the driver follows a well-known route, but encounters unexpected challenges. Our simulations show that a standard active inference model can form adaptive habits; i.e., can pass from deliberative to habitual control when the context is stable, but generally fails to revert to deliberative control, when the context changes. To address this failure of context-sensitivity, we introduce a novel type of hierarchical active inference, in which a lower level is responsible for behavioural control and the higher (or meta-cognitive) level observes the belief updating of the lower level below and is responsible for cognitive control. Crucially, the meta-cognitive level can both form habits and suspend them, by controlling the (precision) parameter that prioritizes deliberative choices at the behavioural level. Furthermore, we show that several processes linked to cognitive control — such as surprise detection, cognitive conflict monitoring, control signal regulation and specification, the simulation of future outcomes and the assessment of the costs of control and mental effort — stem coherently from the free energy minimization scheme that underpins active inference. Finally, we discuss the putative neurobiology of cognitive control by simulating brain dynamics in the mesolimbic and mesocortical pathways of the dopamine system, the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and the locus coeruleus.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":403,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Life Reviews","volume":"54 ","pages":"Pages 27-51"},"PeriodicalIF":13.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144134412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the genomic machineries mediating such an influence remain elusive, making it difficult to determine therapeutic targets on the tumor and its microenvironment. Here, we argue that a computational model, derived from the integration of evolutionary game theory and ecosystem theory through allometric scaling law, can chart the genomic atlas of high-order interaction networks involving tumor cells, TME, and tumor mass. We assess the application of this model to identify the causal influence of gene-induced tumor-TME crosstalk on tumor growth. The findings demonstrate that cooperation and competition between tumor cells and their infiltrating microenvironment promote or inhibit tumor growth in diverse ways. We identify specific genes that govern this promotion or inhibition, which can be used as genetic targets to alter tumor growth. This model opens up a new avenue to precisely infer the genomic underpinnings of tumor-TME interactions and their impact on tumor progression from any omics data.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":403,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Life Reviews","volume":"54 ","pages":"Pages 11-23"},"PeriodicalIF":13.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144116392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different enhancement methods such as cognitive trainings, smart drugs, and brain stimulation techniques have been proposed and tested to enhance human’s cognition. In this narrative review, we summarize the main psychological and neuroscientific findings regarding those cognitive enhancement methods. We thereby distinguish passive (e.g., smart drugs) and active enhancement methods (e.g., working memory training)–which require different levels of agency. While for both forms of enhancement there is no (or only little) empirical evidence on their effectiveness to improve overall cognitive abilities, passive methods entail severe risks. Thus, we criticize promoting an overly optimistic view on especially passive enhancement. Furthermore, we highlight which individuals might be willing to enhance themselves, related motivational aspects of cognitive enhancement, and ethical considerations thereof. To raise awareness for the (in)effectiveness and risks of passive and active enhancement, we propose a category framework that distinguishes cognitive enhancement from clinical methods to treat disorders or diagnosed deficits and introduces important dimensions thereof. Finally, we present open questions for psychological and neuroscientific research which should become part of enhancement debates. Taken together, our narrative review provides a broad overview and critical assessment of enhancement-related topics such as effectiveness and risks of enhancement methods, motivational aspects to apply enhancement, and societal implications of cognitive enhancement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":403,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Life Reviews","volume":"54 ","pages":"Pages 58-77"},"PeriodicalIF":13.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144170412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
