Physically real and virtual reality exposed line bisection response patterns: visuospatial attention allocation in virtual reality

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
IntroductionTo understand the nature of hemispatial attention allocation in virtual reality (VR), a line bisection task (LBT) was administered both in a real environment and a virtual environment to assess the rate of pseudoneglect.

STDP in recurrent neuronal networks [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2010
Recent results about spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) in recurrently connected neurons are reviewed, with a focus on the relationship between the weight dynamics and the emergence of network structure. In particular, the evolution of synaptic weights in the two cases of incoming connections for a single neuron and recurrent connections are ...

Noradrenaline Increases mEPSC Frequency in Pyramidal Cells in Layer II of Rat Barrel Cortex via Calcium Release From Presynaptic Stores

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Somatosensory cortex is innervated by afferents originating from the locus coeruleus which typically release noradrenaline. We tested if activation of presynaptic α1-adrenoceptors (AR) coupled to a Gq-mediated signaling cascade resulted in calcium (Ca2+)

Scale-Free Dynamics in Animal Groups and Brain Networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
Collective phenomena fascinate by the emergence of order in systems composed of a myriad of small entities. They are ubiquitous in nature and can be found over a vast range of scales in physical and biological systems.

SNAP-25 phosphorylation at Ser187 regulates synaptic facilitation and short-term plasticity in an age-dependent manner

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Neurotransmitter release is mediated by the SNARE complex, but the role of its phosphorylation has scarcely been elucidated. Although PKC activators are known to facilitate synaptic transmission, there has been a heated debate on whether PKC mediates ...

Analyzing Developing Brain-On-Chip Cultures with the CALIMA Calcium Imaging Tool

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Brain-on-chip (BoC) models are tools for reproducing the native microenvironment of neurons, in order to study the (patho)physiology and drug-response of the brain.

A kinematic model of stick‐insect walking

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
Animal, and insect walking (locomotion) in particular, have attracted much attention from scientists over many years up to now. The investigations included behavioral, electrophysiological experiments, as well as modeling studies.
