Book Chapter
Cassaday, H., & Nelson, A. J. (2018). The neuropharmacology of what, where, when: how dopamine modulates recognition memory for objects and their contexts. In A. Ennaceur, & M. A. de Souza Silva (Eds.), Handbook of Object Novelty Recognition, 359-369. Elsevier. doi:10.1016/b978-0-12-812012-5.00024-0

Recognition of objects and their contexts is demonstrated based on the intrinsic features of objects (‘what’), as well as for spatial (‘where’) or temporal presentation (‘when’) cues. A network of structures identified in lesion studies forms a neura...

What’s special about the ethical challenges of studying disorders with altered brain activity?
Book Chapter
Cassaday, H. J. What’s special about the ethical challenges of studying disorders with altered brain activity?. In G. Lee, J. Illes, & F. Ohl (Eds.), Ethical issues in behavioral neuroscience. Springer-Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/7854_2014_333

Where there is no viable alternative, studies of neuronal activity are conducted on animals. The use of animals, particularly for invasive studies of the brain, raises a number of ethical issues. Practical or normative ethics are enforced by legislat... Read More about What’s special about the ethical challenges of studying disorders with altered brain activity?.
