Vocal learning promotes patterned inhibitory connectivity [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Complex motor behaviors such as birdsong are learned through practice and are thought to depend on specific excitatory connectivity in premotor circuits.

Learning-induced remodelling of inhibitory synapses in the motor cortex

open access: yesOpen Biology
Robust structural and functional plasticity occurs at excitatory synapses in the motor cortex in response to learning. It is well established that local spinogenesis and the subsequent maintenance of newly formed spines are crucial for motor learning ...

Conditioned inhibition, inhibitory learning, response inhibition, and inhibitory control: Outlining a conceptual clarification

open access: yesPsychological Review, 2023
Inhibition can be defined as a phenomenon in which an agent prevents or suppresses a behavioral state that would otherwise occur. Associative learning studies have extensively examined how experiences shape the acquisition of inhibitory behavioral ...

Inhibitory Circuits in the Basolateral Amygdala in Aversive Learning and Memory [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Neural circuits in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) play a pivotal role in the learning and memory formation, and processing of emotionally salient experiences, particularly aversive ones.

Learning and motor inhibitory control in crows and domestic chickens [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Cognitive abilities allow animals to navigate through complex, fluctuating environments. In the present study, we tested the performance of a captive group of eight crows, Corvus corone and 10 domestic chickens, Gallus gallus domesticus, in the cylinder ...

Learning excitatory-inhibitory neuronal assemblies in recurrent networks [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Understanding the connectivity observed in the brain and how it emerges from local plasticity rules is a grand challenge in modern neuroscience. In the primary visual cortex (V1) of mice, synapses between excitatory pyramidal neurons and inhibitory ...

The Inhibitory Mechanism in Learning Ambiguous Words in a Second Language [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Ambiguous words are hard to learn, yet little is known about what causes this difficulty. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between the representations of new and prior meanings of ambiguous words in second language (L2) learning ...

Inhibitory learning is modulated by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2015
Prior research has established that stimulating nicotinic acetylcholine receptors can facilitate learning and memory. However, most studies have focused on learning to emit a particular behavior, while little is known about the effects of nicotine on learning to withhold a behavioral response.
