Computational models of millisecond level duration tuning in neural circuits.

20 Jul 2009 Discrimination of stimulus duration on the order of milliseconds has been observed in behavioral and neurophysiological studies across a variety of species and taxa. Several studies conducted in mammals have found neurons in the auditory midbrain ... Read more...

A basal ganglia-forebrain circuit in the songbird biases motor output to avoid vocal errors.

11 Jul 2009 In songbirds, as in mammals, basal ganglia-forebrain circuits are necessary for the learning and production of complex motor behaviors; however, the precise role of these circuits remains unknown. It has recently been shown that a basal ... Read more...

Neonatal exposure to MK801 promotes prepulse-induced delay in startle response time in adult rats.

28 Jun 2009 The acoustic startle reflex in rats can be inhibited if a prepulse stimulus is presented just before the startle stimulus (prepulse inhibition; PPI). When postnatal day 7 (P7) rats are exposed to agents that block the NMDA receptor (NMDAR), robust ... Read more...
