The effect of spatial learning on the number of astrocytes in the CA3 subfield of the rat hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Introduction: Astrocytes play an important role in the hippocampus, probably in memory and learning. The aim of this study was to evaluate the number of astrocytes in the CA3 subfield of the rat hippocampus after spatial learning using the Morris water ...

The effect of silver nanoparticles on learning and memory in rodents: "a systematic review"

open access: yesJournal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2023
Background Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used in medicine owing to their antiseptic activity and inducing cell death. Despite AgNPs' importance in nano-engineering and medical benefits, animal studies have shown silver toxicity can damage ...

Safe Mutations for Deep and Recurrent Neural Networks through Output Gradients

open access: yes, 2018
While neuroevolution (evolving neural networks) has a successful track record across a variety of domains from reinforcement learning to artificial life, it is rarely applied to large, deep neural networks.

CaMKII binding to GluN2B is important for massed spatial learning in the Morris water maze [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3ud]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
Learning and memory as well as long-term potentiation (LTP) depend on Ca2+ influx through the NMDA-type glutamate receptor (NMDAR) and the resulting activation of the Ca2+ and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKII).

Perinatal Exposure to Low-Dose Bisphenol A Impairs Spatial Learning and Memory in Male Rats

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
Bisphenol A (BPA) is an estrogenic endocrine disruptor used for producing polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. This study investigated the effects of perinatal BPA exposure on learning and memory, general activity, and emotionality in male Sprague ...

On a Unique Solution of a T-Maze Model Arising in the Psychology and Theory of Learning

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2022
In the form of a T, a T-maze is an experimental design in which each trial consists of decisions between two or more options. It contains choices with particular kinds of symmetries that have gained considerable attention in psychology and learning ...

Complex maze learning by fish

open access: yesAnimal Behaviour, 2017
Rats, mice and other rodents are well-known for their ability to solve complex spatial tasks, such as learning to negotiate complicated mazes. This ability might be an adaptation for the fossorial habit that characterizes most rodents, but the scarcity of data from other taxa prevents us from confirming this hypothesis.

Weak if any effect of estrogen on spatial memory in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In a number of species, males appear to have spatial abilities that are superior to those of females. The favored explanation for this cognitive difference is hormonal: higher testosterone levels in males than in females.
