Synchronization of midbrain dopaminergic neurons is enhanced by rewarding events.

9 Jun 2009 The basal ganglia network is divided into two functionally related subsystems: the neuromodulators and the main axis. It is assumed that neuromodulators adjust cortico-striatal coupling. This adjustment might depend on the response properties and ... Read more...

Biphasic activation of the mTOR pathway in the gustatory cortex is correlated with and necessary for taste learning.

8 Jun 2009 Different forms of memories and synaptic plasticity require synthesis of new proteins at the time of acquisition or immediately after. We are interested in the role of translation regulation in the cortex, the brain structure assumed to store ... Read more...

The central nucleus of the amygdala and corticotropin-releasing factor: insights into contextual fear memory.

Jun 2009 The central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) has been traditionally viewed in fear conditioning to serve as an output neural center that transfers conditioned information formed in the basolateral amygdala to brain structures that generate emotional ... Read more...
