In the present work, we approach two key aspects of memory formation: associative memory and synaptic consolidation.
The storage of associative memory is commonly related to the medial temporal lobe in humans. Experimental evidence shows that the memories ...
Spinal cord injury (SCI) remains a global problem, and despite decades of research there currently is no cure for this disease. Recently, significant advances in the use of neuroprosthetic rehabilitation to improve locomotor outcomes after SCI have been ma ...
The accumulation of hyperphosphorylated fibrillar Tau aggregates in the brain is one of the defining hallmarks of Tauopathy diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. However, the primary events or molecules responsible for initiation of the pathological Tau ...
Objective Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are illusory own body reduplications characterized by the visual perception of a second own body in extrapersonal space, and include three main forms: autoscopic hallucination (AH), heautoscopy (HAS) and out-of-body-expe ...
Background Inhibitory control (IC) is critical to keep long-term goals in everyday life. Bidirectional relationships between IC deficits and obesity are behind unhealthy eating and physical exercise habits. Methods We studied gut microbiome composition and ...
An important function of the brain is to analyze sensory information, and to modulate animal behaviour according to previous experience. During processes of emotional learning, sensory percepts with a reinforcing quality, also called unconditioned stimuli ...
Cells are powerful carriers that can help to improve the delivery of nanomedicines. One approach to use cells as carriers is to immobilize the nanoparticulate cargo on the cell surface. While a plethora of chemical conjugation strategies are available to b ...
Grid cells are place-modulated neurons that encode the location of an agent in space, relying on the integration of various sensorimotor signals from the body. Of note, the integration of those signals is also fundamental for the agent's conscious experien ...
Introduction: Gangliogliomas (GG) are considered WHO grade I rare tumors. While they commonly manifest as temporal lobe epilepsy, they can be located anywhere in the brain. Primary treatment is complete microsurgical resection. Remnant or recurrent GG can ...
Functional dissociations in the brain observed during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep have been associated with reduced information integration and impaired consciousness that accompany increasing sleep depth. Here, we explored the dynamical properties ...
