Type: Concept
As of November 2026, Salience network has been mentioned in one podcast episode on HUBERMAN LAB (Jul 2025). Presented as a key system in identifying what's relevant, becoming more efficient with focus and withdrawal from noise.
The salience network (SN), also referred to as the midcingulo-insular network (M-CIN) or cingulo-opercular network in anatomical parcellation schemes, is a large scale network of the human brain that is primarily composed of the anterior insula (AI) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC). It is involved in detecting and filtering salient stimuli, as well as in recruiting relevant functional networks. Together with its interconnected brain networks, the SN contributes to a variety of complex
