note = "Using functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIR), a noninvasive and emergent optical imaging tool, we monitored prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation during the learning of simulated laparoscopic surgical tasks. A contextual interference paradigm (blocked [BLK] and random [RND] practice schedules) was used to assess behavioral performance and brain activation during the retention and transfer of simulated laparoscopic surgical tasks.",
