Characterization of NMDAR-independent learning in the hippocampus.

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2011
It is currently thought that memory formation requires the activation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) in the hippocampus. However, recent studies indicate that these receptors are not necessary for all forms of learning. The current experiments examine this

Impairments of Synaptic Plasticity Induction Threshold and Network Oscillatory Activity in the Hippocampus Underlie Memory Deficits in a Non-Transgenic Mouse Model of Amyloidosis

open access: yesBiology, 2020
In early Alzheimer disease (AD) models synaptic failures and upstreaming aberrant patterns of network synchronous activity result in hippocampal-dependent memory deficits. In such initial stage, soluble forms of Amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides have been shown to

Thinking Materially: Cognition as Extended and Enacted [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human cognition is extended and enacted. Drawing the boundaries of cognition to include the resources and attributes of the body and materiality allows an examination of how these components interact with the brain as a system, especially over cultural ...

Preconditioning tDCS facilitates subsequent tDCS effect on skill acquisition in older adults. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Functional motor declines that often occur with advancing age-including reduced efficacy to learn new skills-can have a substantial impact on the quality of life.

“Atypical Glandular Cells” on Cervical Cytology: Correlation Between Glandular Cell Component Volume and Histological Follow‐Up

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Atypical glandular cells (AGC) in cervical cytology, as defined by the Bethesda System, indicate nuclear atypia beyond reactive changes but without definitive features of malignancy. Although clinically significant because it prompts follow‐up procedures, no quantitative threshold exists for AGC diagnosis.

Unraveling the cellular and molecular mechanisms of repetitive magnetic stimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2013
Despite numerous clinical studies, which have investigated the therapeutic potential of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in various brain diseases, our knowledge of the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying rTMS-based therapies ...

Artificial metaplasticity prediction model for cognitive rehabilitation outcome in acquired brain injury patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objective The main purpose of this research is the novel use of artificial metaplasticity on multilayer perceptron (AMMLP) as a data mining tool for prediction the outcome of patients with acquired brain injury (ABI) after cognitive rehabilitation.

Plasticity and dystonia: a hypothesis shrouded in variability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Studying plasticity mechanisms with Professor John Rothwell was a shared highlight of our careers. In this article, we discuss non-invasive brain stimulation techniques which aim to induce and quantify plasticity, the mechanisms and nature of their ...

Electroactive Proteinoid–Quantum Dot Systems

open access: yesSmall Science, EarlyView.
Proteinoid‐quantum dot conjugates form toroidal nanostructures (145.2 nm outer diameter, 102.3 nm cavity) via glutamic acid‐phenylalanine‐aspartic acid‐cysteine cross‐linking with sulfo‐SMCC (sulfosuccinimidyl 4‐(N‐maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane‐1‐carboxylate).

Updating perspectives on spinal cord function: motor coordination, timing, relational processing, and memory below the brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience
Those studying neural systems within the brain have historically assumed that lower-level processes in the spinal cord act in a mechanical manner, to relay afferent signals and execute motor commands.
