Hoy, Kevin (2012-10-19)Previous research has demonstrated that the spinal cord is capable of a simple form of instrumental learning. In this instrumental learning paradigm, rats typically receive a complete spinal transection at the second ...

Correa Nunez, Paola A. (2015-12-14)Neuro-modulation of self-amplifying circuits drives the execution of behaviors to their appropriate context. These recursive networks are found throughout the Caenorhabditis elegans connectome, however the mechanism that ...

Trent, Samantha Shea (2017-07-12)There is behavioral evidence that echolocating bats can manipulate the acoustic projection pattern of their sonar pulse emissions, but the mechanism(s) for this are unknown. I hypothesized that the Mexican free-tailed bat ...

Wang, Qian (2017-06-21)Exposure therapy is an effective treatment for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, many patients experienced relapse of fear after treatment. Pavlovian fear conditioning and extinction are effective models to ...

Chiu, Cheng-Wei 1979- (2012-11-06)Electrodes implanted into neural systems are known to degrade due to encapsulation by surrounding tissues. The mechanisms of electrode-tissue interactions and prediction of the behavior of electrode are yet to be achieved. This ...

Paez, Ximena (2014-06-02)Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) results from α-motor neuron loss in the spinal cord due to low levels of the survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein, required for proper spliceosome assembly. The reduced levels of SMN cause ...

Harlow, Mark (1994)The study of insect immunology has been hampered by the limited quantity of material from any one individual. We have developed several techniques to make use of flow cytometry for the isolation and characterization of ...

Wang, Shuo (2018-05-01)It is known that extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) play important roles in development and maintenance of skeletal muscles in vitro and in vivo. However, it is not clear whether muscle ERK1/2 can ...

Brooks, Arielle L (2015-05-13)The ability to catalyze the fission step of endocytosis is critical to many biological processes including cell communication and synaptic transmission. This activity must be tightly regulated for cellular homeostasis. ...
