In vivo neurochemistry of the ventral striatum and social competition in Homo sapiens

Ventral striatal function and trait anxiety have been shown to influence reward-seeking behaviour and social competition in humans. Moreover, social status perceptions have been shown to modulate ventral striatal function. The neurochemical underpinnings o ...

Cognetics: Robotic Interfaces for the Conscious Mind

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini

Cognetics joins the cognitive neuroscience of bodily awareness with robotics to study, control, and enhance perception, cognition, and consciousness. We highlight robot-controlled bodily perception, conscious states, and social interactions and sketch how ...

Neural Mechanisms of Bodily Self-Consciousness and the Experience of Presence in Virtual Reality

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon

Recent neuroscience research emphasizes the embodied origins of the experience of the self. This chapter shows that further advances in the understanding of the phenomenon of VR-induced presence might be achieved in connection with advances in the understa ...

Brief wide-field photostimuli evoke and modulate oscillatory reverberating activity in cortical networks

Michele Giugliano

Cell assemblies manipulation by optogenetics is pivotal to advance neuroscience and neuroengineering. In in vivo applications, photostimulation often broadly addresses a population of cells simultaneously, leading to feed-forward and to reverberating respo ...

The impact of anxiety and reward-seeking traits on social competition and the role of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system

Laura Lozano Montes

Social hierarchies are established across a range of different taxa in the animal kingdom. Given that hierarchy inequalities are highly present in nowadays society and the health problems that low rank individuals suffer from this, it is surprising that no ...

Corticospinal neuroprostheses to restore locomotion after spinal cord injury

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Pavel Musienko, Ivan Rusev Minev, Nikolaus Wenger, Marco Bonizzato, Janine Beauparlant, David Allenson Borton

In this conceptual review, we highlight our strategy for, and progress in the development of corticospinal neuroprostheses for restoring locomotor functions and promoting neural repair after thoracic spinal cord injury in experimental animal models. We spe ...

Social Defeat as an Animal Model for Depression

Fiona Hollis

Depression is one of the most disabling medical conditions in the world today, yet its etiologies remain unclear and current treatments are not wholly effective. Animal models are a powerful tool to investigate possible causes and treatments for human dise ...

Seven challenges for neuroscience

Henry Markram

Although twenty-first century neuroscience is a major scientific enterprise, advances in basic research have not yet translated into benefits for society. In this paper, I outline seven fundamental challenges that need to be overcome. First, neuroscience h ...

Peripuberty stress leads to abnormal aggression, altered amygdala and orbitofrontal reactivity and increased prefrontal MAOA gene expression

Pierre Magistretti, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Didier Trono, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Guillaume Poirier, Anna Claire Groner, Cristina Marquez Vega

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 ...

Reconceptualizing second-person interaction

Michiel van Elk

Over the last couple of decades, most neuroscientific research on social cognition has been dominated by a third person paradigm in which participating subjects are not actively engaging with other agents but merely observe them. Recently this paradigm has ...
