Sensory gating and its modulation by cannabinoids: electrophysiological, computational and mathematical analysis (2008)
Journal Article
Zachariou, M., Dissanayake, D. W. N., Coombes, S., Owen, M. R., & Mason, R. (in press). Sensory gating and its modulation by cannabinoids: electrophysiological, computational and mathematical analysis. Cognitive Neurodynamics, 2, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11571-008-9050-4

Gating of sensory information can be assessed using an auditory conditioning-test paradigm which measures the reduction in the auditory evoked response to a test stimulus following an initial conditioning stimulus. Recording brainwaves from specific... Read More about Sensory gating and its modulation by cannabinoids: electrophysiological, computational and mathematical analysis.

The role of cannabinoids in the neurobiology of sensory gating: a firing rate model study (2006)
Journal Article
Zachariou, M., Dissanayake, D., Owen, M. R., Mason, R., & Coombes, S. The role of cannabinoids in the neurobiology of sensory gating: a firing rate model study. Neurocomputing, 70(10/12), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2006.10.065

Gating of sensory (e.g. auditory) information has been demonstrated as a reduction in the auditory-evoked potential responses recorded in the brain of both normal animals and human subjects. Auditory gating is perturbed in schizophrenic patients and... Read More about The role of cannabinoids in the neurobiology of sensory gating: a firing rate model study.
