The Thalamostriatal System in Normal and Diseased States
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014 Because of our limited knowledge of the functional role of the thalamostriatal system, this massive network is often ignored in models of the pathophysiology of brain disorders of basal ganglia origin, such as Parkinson’s disease.

Filopodia: A Rapid Structural Plasticity Substrate for Fast Learning
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2017 Formation of new synapses between neurons is an essential mechanism for learning and encoding memories. The vast majority of excitatory synapses occur on dendritic spines, therefore, the growth dynamics of spines is strongly related to the plasticity ...

Dopamine regulation of social choice in a monogamous rodent species
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009 There is growing appreciation that social decision making in humans is strongly influenced by hedonic and emotional processing. The field of social neuroeconomics has shown that neural systems important for reward are associated with social choice and ...
