Abstract:

Spontaneously active monolayer neuronal networks cultured on photoetched multimicroelectrode plates (MMEPs) offer great potential for use in studying neuronal networks. However, there are many problems associated with frequent, long-term use of MMEPs. The major problems include (1) polysiloxane insulation deterioration and breakdown, (2) and loss of gold at the gold electroplated indium-tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. The objective of this investigation was to correct these major problems. Quality control measures were employed to monitor MMEP fabrication variables. The phenotypes of polysilo

Abstract:

Decisions are the result of a deliberative process that evaluates the suitability of specific options. Studies about decision making have been mainly conducted by using restricted tasks in which humans or animals are requested to discriminate between options. However, the influence that factors related to embodiment, such as motor cost, might have on this process has frequently been ignored. In this thesis, we adopt a combined experimental and theoretical approach to examine the effect that such factors have on decision making. Our results confirm an important bias of behavior and neural activ

Abstract:

Whether reading and spelling rely on the same orthographic representations has been a controversial issue in the neuropsychology literature. In general, associations between patterns of alexia and agraphia in neurological patients have been interpreted to support the view that reading and spelling share the same orthographic lexicon. By contrast, dissociations between reading and spelling profiles are considered as evidence for the existence of separate orthographic input and output lexicons subserving written word recognition and production.

Abstract:

The transmission of sex pheromone-mediated signals is essential for goldfish reproduction. However, the neural pathways underlying this reproductive signalling pathway in the goldfish brain is not well described. Lesioning experiments have shown previously that two brain areas, the preoptic area (POA) and the ventral telencephali pars ventralis (Vv) in particular, are important for reproduction. We used patch clamp electrophysiology to study the electrical activities of POA and Vv neurons. Based on the intrinsic properties of these neurons, we suggest there are five different functional classe

The Gangliosidoses, to include GM1 gangliosidosis and Sandhoff disease are a class of incurable lysosomal storage disorders characterized by an abnormal accumulation of gangliosides leading to progressive neurodegeneration and eventually death. GM1 gangliosidosis is caused by a genetic defect in the lysosomal-specific acid β-galactosidase, which results in the massive accumulation of ganglioside GM1 primarily in the central nervous system (CNS). Sandhoff disease (SD) results from a defect in the β-subunit of β- Hexosaminidase A and leads to the accumulation of ganglioside GM2 and its asialo de

Abstract:

There is evidence that abstract and concrete words are represented and processed differently in the brain. Numerous studies suggest the activation of a bilateral network for both abstract and concrete words, with a greater involvement of posterior, sensory areas in concrete word processing, and a more focal activation of anterior regions, involved in verbal processing, for abstract words. This Ph.D. thesis aimed at investigating the different neural substrates of concrete and abstract words by studying memory priming during general anesthesia.

The current study explored the relationship between hippocampal volume and short-term/working memory (STM/WM) in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia (RD). It was hypothesized that there would be group differences in hippocampal volume and STM/WM performance, and that there would be a relationship between hippocampal volume and STM/WM performance. Results indicated that there were not significant differences in hippocampal volume across the groups. However, a trend of smaller bilateral posterior volumes was found in the RD groups compared to the non-RD g

Abstract:

Binocular rivalry is the perceptual consequence of dichoptic input which is not congruent between both visual inputs. There is some evidence, both theoretical and empirical, that the perception of binocular rivalry is mediated by interactions between binocular neurones, rather than by interactions between monocular neurones. This evidence suggests also a model of perception which predicts binocular rivalry as a consequence of normal interactions between binocular neurones in a retinotopic array. This model accounts for rivalry without postulating any additional interconnections beyond t

Abstract:

Perceptual decision-making describes the process of choosing one of at least two response alternatives based on sensory evidence. This sensorimotor process underlies a range of human behaviours and has been studied extensively by both psychologists and neuroscientists. There is now a consensus, that perceptual decision-making can be explained by sequential sampling models, which assume that we make decisions by accumulating sensory evidence over time until a decision threshold is reached and the response is executed. Although these models are designed to explain behavioural data, the accumulat

Written production of both irregular words and nonwords engaged a left hemisphere perisylvian network associated with reading/spelling and phonological processing skills.

Impulsivity is a pathological feature of drug addiction. Amphetamine is a highly addictive drug that is amongst the most harmful recreational drugs abused within the UK (Nutt, King, & Phillips, 2010). Interestingly, however, amphetamine has a paradoxical relationship with impulsivity and can both alleviate and induce impulsive behaviour depending on pre-baseline levels of impulsivity and the dimension of impulsivity that is being measured. The current thesis sought to investigate the relationship between different patterns of amphetamine administration and impulsivity in the form of behavioura

Abstract:

Highly organised structures have been well-known to be part of the complex neuronal network presented in the nervous system, where thousands of neuronal connections are arranged to give rise to critical physiological functions. Conventional in vitro culture methods are useful to represent simplistic neuronal behaviour, however, the lack of such organisation results in random and uncontrolled neurite spreading, leading to a lack of cell directionality and in turn, resulting in inaccurate neuronal in vitro models. Neurons are highly specialised cells, known to be greatly dependent on interaction

Background: Despite our distinct impression to the contrary, we are only conscious of a fraction of all the neural activity underlying our thoughts and behavior. Most neural processes occur non-consciously, and in parallel with our conscious experience. However, it is still unclear what the limits of non-conscious processes are in terms of higher cognitive functions. Many recent studies have shown that increasingly more advanced functions can operate non-consciously, but non-conscious information is still thought to be fleeting and undetectable within 500 milliseconds.
