Although Mab and Mad occupy the same cortical territory as mouse CFA and RFA (Tennant et al., 2011), important differences exist between them. First, Mab and Mad are contiguous and equal in area, whereas CFA is larger than RFA and they … Continue reading →

The results above suggested that the figure-ground measure can be related to contour perception; however, the exact spatial relation, at the pixel level, is not clear. We therefore wanted to investigate the relationship between the monkey’s report and each pixel … Continue reading →

, 1992a, 1992b, 1993). A dichotomy of learning mechanisms has also been proposed (Adini et al., 2004): training under certain circumstances mainly enhances processing of sensory information in the visual cortex, which is less transferable between different stimuli; while training in … Continue reading →

, 2006). This is an important lead since the prefrontal cortex is involved in extinction, a type of learning (Santini et al., 2004), but more research is needed to explore the complex relationship between stress, fear conditioning, extinction, and possible morphological … Continue reading →

, 2005), proper diagnosis and treatment of tinnitus are of growing concern. Despite its high prevalence, there is little consensus regarding the neurophysiological origin of tinnitus. Most researchers agree that tinnitus can be linked to changes at one or more … Continue reading →

The EPSP-AP delay was remarkably variable and was on average about 200 μs, which is larger than the physiological ITD range of the gerbil. Similar delays have been observed in a slice study (Scott et al., 2007). This delay consists of the … Continue reading →

The total sample consisted of 255 smokers with ADHD. The mean age was 37. 8 years (SD = 10, range: 19–56); 56.5% of the sample was male, 34.1% were married, 22.4% were divorced or separated and 43.9% were single; 79.2% were non-Hispanic … Continue reading →

It will be interesting to identify other neurovascular structures in which this model applies, both in peripheral tissues and also in the brain, where neurons are also intimately associated with blood vessels but the mechanism underlying it is completely unknown. … Continue reading →

Rhesus monkeys are refractory until the first menses, and squirrel monkeys were dependent on estrus. Naturally occurring trichomonads are a conflicting factor for the use of monkeys as a disease model or vaccination model. However, the pigtailed macaque is still … Continue reading →
