Behavior analysis and behavioral neuroscience [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Behavior analysis—the science of adaptive behavior—focuses on behavior as a subject matter in its own right, not as an index of cognitive events, and is, thus, not dualistic. Behavior analysis incorporates several laws of learning discovered by researchers using single-subject experimental designs.

Dissection of insular cortex layer 5 reveals two sublayers with opposing modulatory roles in appetitive drinking behavior

iScience, 2023
Summary: The insular cortex (insula) is known to play a modulatory role in feeding and drinking. Previous studies have revealed anterior-posterior differences of subcortical projections and roles for the insula, yet the anatomical and functional ...

Dissociation of tic generation from tic expression during the sleep-wake cycle

iScience, 2021
Summary: Motor tics, the hallmark of Tourette syndrome (TS), are modulated by different behavioral and environmental factors. A major modulating factor is the sleep-wake cycle in which tics are attenuated to a large extent during sleep.

Dopamine-mediated striatal activity and function is enhanced in GlyRα2 knockout animals

iScience, 2023
Summary: The glycine receptor alpha 2 (GlyRα2) is a ligand-gated ion channel which upon activation induces a chloride conductance. Here, we investigated the role of GlyRα2 in dopamine-stimulated striatal cell activity and behavior. We show that depletion

Countermanding Perceptual Decision-Making

iScience, 2020
Summary: We investigated whether a task requiring concurrent perceptual decision-making and response control can be performed concurrently, whether evidence accumulation and response control are accomplished by the same neurons, and whether perceptual ...

Comparative Perspectives that Challenge Brain Warming as the Primary Function of REM Sleep

iScience, 2020
Summary: Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a paradoxical state of wake-like brain activity occurring after non-REM (NREM) sleep in mammals and birds.

Glucokinase neurons of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus sense glucose and decrease food consumption

iScience, 2021
Summary: The paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) controls goal-oriented behavior through its connections to the nucleus accumbens (NAc). We previously characterized Glut2aPVT neurons that are activated by hypoglycemia, and which increase ...
