Hippocampal Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Parkinson's Disease and Associations with Non- Motor Symptoms
DownloadSpring 2023
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and causes not only well-characterised motor symptoms, but also a host of non-motor symptoms that greatly impact quality of life. PD exists within a larger spectrum of disorders caused by the accumulation of Lewy bodies...

Hippocampal neuroplasticity and neurogenesis in major depressive disorder: a high field MRI study
DownloadFall 2012
The hippocampus is a brain structure responsible for memory, learning, and the stress response; it is also used as a model for major depressive disorder (MDD) in preclinical studies. Preclinical models have shown that the hippocampal subfields are differentially affected by chronic stress....

Investigating Human Brain Function and Human Brain Organization Using Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging at 4.7 T
DownloadFall 2020
Understanding the brain-cognition association has been a major goal of neuroscientists for more than 50 years. The discovery of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast by Ogawa and colleagues (1990, 1992) has fundamentally transformed the field of...

Acquisition and storage of episodic-like information fundamentally contributes to quality of life. It is the type of information that allows us to remember meaningful events such as our graduation and our heartaches. The memory of these events allows us to adapt our behaviours to facilitate more...

Modulation of Spontaneous Neural Network Bursting in Newborn Rat Brain Slices by Extracellular Calcium, Methylxanthines, and Opioids
DownloadFall 2012
Spontaneous neuronal bursting appears to be pivotal for brain maturation. This thesis studied such synchronized neural network oscillations in immature newborn rat hippocampus, cortex, and locus coeruleus. For this, horizontal brain slices were generated for (simultaneous) suction electrode...

The ability of synapses to undergo lasting changes in synaptic strength is considered the primary cellular mechanism for associative memory formation in the mammalian brain. Synapses in the hippocampus, a brain structure required for new memory genesis, exhibit a remarkable capacity for...
