Coordinated prefrontal state transition leads extinction of reward-seeking behaviors (2020)
Other
Russo, E., Ma, T., Spanagel, R., Durstewitz, D., Toutounji, H., & Köhr, G. Coordinated prefrontal state transition leads extinction of reward-seeking behaviors

Extinction learning suppresses conditioned reward responses and is thus fundamental to adapt to changing environmental demands and to control excessive reward seeking. The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) monitors and controls conditioned reward respo... Read More about Coordinated prefrontal state transition leads extinction of reward-seeking behaviors.

Frequency- and state-dependent effects of hippocampal neural disinhibition on hippocampal local field potential oscillations in anaesthetised rats (2019)
Other
Gwilt, M., Bauer, M., & Bast, T. (2019). Frequency- and state-dependent effects of hippocampal neural disinhibition on hippocampal local field potential oscillations in anaesthetised rats

Reduced inhibitory GABA function, so-called neural disinhibition, has been implicated in cognitive disorders, including schizophrenia and age-related cognitive decline. We previously showed in rats that hippocampal disinhibition by local microinfusio...

The neural bases of resilient cognitive systems: Evidence of variable neuro-displacement in the semantic system (2019)
Other
Jung, J., Rice, G. E., & Lambon Ralph, M. A. The neural bases of resilient cognitive systems: Evidence of variable neuro-displacement in the semantic system

The purpose of this study was to initiate exploration of an equally-important research goal: what are the neurocomputational mechanisms that make these cognitive systems “well engineered” and thus resilient across a range of performance demands and t...
