The Neonatal Locus Coeruleus is a Differentiated and Complex Neuromodulatory System as Revealed by Local Field Potential Analysis
DownloadSpring 2019
The locus coeruleus (LC) in the pons of the brainstem provides the sole source of noradrenergic afferent input to most brain structures including the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum and spinal cord. The resulting modulation of activity is important for controlling behaviors like...

The Role of MAGEL2 in Ubiquitination Pathways and its Contribution to Prader-Willi and Schaaf-Yang Syndromes
DownloadFall 2019
The MAGEL2 gene is implicated in two neurodevelopmental disorders: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Schaaf-Yang syndrome (SYS). PWS is characterized by intellectual disability, obesity, poor muscle tone, distinct facial features, excessive daytime sleepiness and nighttime wakening. PWS is a...

Using EEG to examine inhibitory abilities in children: The effects of time pressure, physical activity, and emotion
DownloadFall 2018
The ability to inhibit inappropriate actions and irrelevant information is crucial for adaptive functioning. Inhibitory skills emerge early in life, with significant growth occurring during the period of early and middle childhood. The objective of this dissertation was to utilize...
