Learning-induced biases in the ongoing dynamics of sensory representations predict stimulus generalization

Sensory stimuli have long been thought to be represented in the brain as activity patterns of specific neuronal assemblies. However, we still know relatively little about the long-term dynamics of sensory representations. Using chronic in vivo calcium imag ...

The effect of frontoparietal paired associative stimulation on decision-making and working memory

Traian Popa

Previous single-site neurostimulation experiments have unsuccessfully attempted to shift decision-making away from habitual control, a fast, inflexible cognitive strategy, towards goal-directed control, a flexible, though computationally expensive strategy ...

Peripubertal stress increases play fighting at adolescence and modulates nucleus accumbens CB1 receptor expression and mitochondrial function in the amygdala

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti

Play fighting is a highly rewarding behavior that helps individuals to develop social skills. Early-life stress has been shown to alter play fighting in rats and hamsters as well as to increase aggressive behaviors at adulthood. However, it is not known wh ...

Constitutive differences in habituation of the glucocorticoid response to stress are related to variation in aggression and anxiety-related behaviors

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, Sophie Elizabeth Walker

Glucocorticoids coordinate responses that enable an individual to cope with stressful challenges and, additionally, mediate adaptation following cessation of a stressor. There are important individual differences in the magnitude of glucocorticoid responsi ...

In the pursuit of the fear engram: identification of neuronal circuits underlying the treatment of anxiety disorder

Ossama Mohamed Salah El-Dien El-Sayed Ibrahim Khalaf

Fear and other anxiety disorders are extraordinarily robust and difficult to treat. Among the most effective treatments for anxiety disorders are exposure-based therapies, during which a patient is repeatedly confronted with the originally fear-eliciting s ...

Implication of individual differences in glucocorticoid responsiveness to stress in the development of psychopathology-like behaviour and underlying neurobiology

Sophie Elizabeth Walker

The period around puberty is a critical window in development. It is a time of neuroendocrine and neuroanatomical lability, rendering individuals highly sensitive to stress. Indeed, early adversity increases risk for psychopathology. The mechanisms via whi ...

Linking perceptual learning with identical stimuli to imagery perceptual learning

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia

Perceptual learning is usually thought to be exclusively driven by the stimuli presented during training (and the underlying synaptic learning rules). In some way, we are slaves of our visual experiences. However, learning can occur even when no stimuli ar ...

Vestibular Processing and its Cortical Signature in Humans

Steven Gale

The vestibular system encodes rotations and translations of the head in space. While much is known about cortical processing of the classical Aristotelian sensory modalities, such as vision and touch, knowledge of how vestibular stimulation is encoded in t ...

Perceptual Learning With Indiscriminable Stimuli

Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia

Perceptual learning is learning to perceive. For example, in a bisection task three parallel lines are presented. The central line is slightly offset towards the right or the left outer line. Observers indicate the offset direction. Training greatly improv ...

Perceptual Learning With Only One Stimulus

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia

Perceptual learning is learning to see. For example in a bisection task, three parallel lines are presented with the central line slightly offset towards the right or the left outer line. Participants indicate the offset direction. Training gradually impro ...
