Magnetic resonance imaging is an essential tool for assessing soft tissues. The desire for increased signal-to-noise and improved tissue contrast has spurred development of imaging systems operating at magnetic fields exceeding 3.0 Tesla (T). Unfortunately, traditional imaging methods are of...

Central nervous system plasticity associated with pain in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, and the antinociceptive effects of the antidepressant phenelzine
DownloadFall 2017
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, progressive disease that involves neuroinflammation, demyelination, and neurodegeneration within the central nervous system (CNS). While loss of motor function and paralysis are considered the primary clinical consequences of MS, the disease is also...

Characterizing the Mesolimbic Dopamine Reward Pathway in a Magel2-null Mouse, a Model of Prader-Willi Syndrome
DownloadFall 2016
Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder characterized by extreme hyperphagia that can lead to severe obesity. The abnormal motivation to eat in PWS suggests a disruption in the hedonic feeding pathway, which is feeding based on reward as opposed to physiological need. Hedonic feeding is...

Cognitive deficits affect approximately 50% of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and are associated with disease-related neurodegeneration. Prior MS-studies found decision making impairments uncorrelated with patients’ cognitive functions. Brain correlates of decision making in MS have not been...

Exploring Novel Therapies for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms in a Mouse Model of Multiple Sclerosis
DownloadSpring 2016
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system characterized by neurodegeneration, inflammation and demyelination. Symptoms of multiple sclerosis not only include motor deficits, but also secondary symptoms of pain, depression and anxiety. The purpose of...
