Epistemic Roots, Universal Routes and Ontological Roofs of African “Ritual Archives”: Disciplinary Formations in African Thought

Yoruba Studies Review, 2021
One may compose an essay on another essay, and possibly an even longer one than the essay being studied, long as that one is, when one is confronted with one of those things one has to say something about after encountering them.

Feasibility of Canine Adenovirus Type 2 (CAV2) Based Vector for the Locus Coeruleus Optogenetic Activation in Non-Transgenic Rats: Implications for Functional Studies

Brain Sciences, 2022
The locus coeruleus norepinephrine (LC-NE) system modulates many visceral and cognitive functions, while LC-NE dysfunction leads to neurological and neurodegenerative conditions such as sleep disorders, depression, ADHD, or Alzheimer’s disease ...

Decoding internally generated transitions of conscious contents in the prefrontal cortex without subjective reports

Nature Communications, 2022
The role of the prefrontal cortex in conscious perception is debated because of its involvement in task relevant behaviour, such as subjective perceptual reports.

Invariant neural subspaces maintained by feedback modulation

eLife, 2022
Sensory systems reliably process incoming stimuli in spite of changes in context. Most recent models accredit this context invariance to an extraction of increasingly complex sensory features in hierarchical feedforward networks.

Understanding brain function in vascular cognitive impairment and dementia with EEG and MEG: A systematic review

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2022
Vascular Cognitive Impairment (VCI) is the second most prevalent dementia after Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), and cerebrovascular disease (CBVD) is a major comorbid contributor to the progression of most neurodegenerative diseases.

Altered norepinephrine transmission after spatial learning impairs sleep-mediated memory consolidation in rats

Scientific Reports, 2023
The therapeutic use of noradrenergic drugs makes the evaluation of their effects on cognition of high priority. Norepinephrine (NE) is an important neuromodulator for a variety of cognitive processes and may importantly contribute to sleep-mediated ...

Phasic activation of the locus coeruleus attenuates the acoustic startle response by increasing cortical arousal

Scientific Reports, 2021
An alerting sound elicits the Acoustic Startle Response (ASR) that is dependent on the sound volume and organisms’ state, which is regulated by neuromodulatory centers. The locus coeruleus (LC) neurons respond to salient stimuli and noradrenaline release
