Although adverse early life experiences have been found to increase lifetime risk to develop violent behaviors, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying these long-term effects remain unclear. We present a novel animal model for pathological aggression in ...

Exposure to violence is traumatic and an important source of mental health disturbance, yet the factors associated with victimization remain incompletely understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate factors related to vulnerability to depres ...

Testing nanomaterial toxicity in unicellular eukaryotic algae and fish cell lines.

Kristin Schirmer

Nanoecotoxicology as a sub-discipline of ecotoxicology aims to identify and predict effects elicited on ecosystems by nano-sized materials (NM). Two key groups of model organisms in this context are algae and fi sh. In this chapter, we present consideratio ...

Perceptual learning, roving and the unsupervised bias

Michael Herzog, Wulfram Gerstner, Carl Kristoffer Aberg, Nicolas Frémaux

Perceptual learning improves perception through training. Perceptual learning improves with most stimulus types but fails when certain stimulus types are mixed during training (roving). This result is surprising because classical supervised and unsupervise ...

Toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic modelling of survival of Gammarus pulex in multiple pulse exposures to propiconazole: model assumptions, calibration data requirements and predictive power

Kristin Schirmer

Toxicokinetic-toxicodynamic (TKTD) models quantify the time-course of internal concentration, which is defined by uptake, elimination and biotransformation (TK), and the processes which lead to the toxic effects (TD). TKTD models show potential in predicti ...

Estimating uncertainty of alcohol-attributable fractions for infectious and chronic diseases

Gerrit Gmel

Background: Alcohol is a major risk factor for burden of disease and injuries globally. This paper presents a systematic method to compute the 95% confidence intervals of alcohol-attributable fractions (AAFs) with exposure and risk relations stemming from ...

Quantifying effects of exposure to the third and first-person perspectives in virtual-reality-based training

Daniel Thalmann, Olaf Blanke, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

In the recent years, usage of the third-person perspective (3PP) in virtual training methods has become increasingly viable and despite the growing interest in virtual reality and graphics underlying third-person perspective usage, not many studies have sy ...

Simulating interactions with virtual characters for the treatment of social phobia

Helena Stephanie Grillon Le Gallennec

Virtual Reality (VR) has nowadays become a very useful tool for therapists in the treatment of phobias. Indeed, it allows the simulation of scenarios which are difficult to reproduce in real life. It also allows for a situation to be repeated as much as on ...

Fear conditioning enhances spontaneous AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission in mouse hippocampal CA1 area

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Lisa Conboy

AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic modifications in the amygdala have been reported to sustain cued fear conditioning. However, the hippocampal formation is also critically involved in fear learning. Therefore, we examined whether fear conditioning is also ac ...
