A basic tenet of comparative studies of the brain is that the larger size of any neural structure is related to the need for progressing more complex or larger quantities of information, the so call Jerison's “principle of proper mass”. Base on this principle, variation of the absolute and...

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...

Neuronal Mechanisms of Hyperexcitability in Individuals with Spasticity after Spinal Cord Injury and Individuals with Bruxism
DownloadFall 2013
Motoneuron hyperexcitability is a characteristic of several different motor disorders. We examined neuronal mechanisms of hyperexcitability in two of these disorders: spasticity after spinal cord injury (SCI) and bruxism. Involuntary muscle spasms after SCI occur as a result of uncontrolled...

Organization of the cerebellum: correlating biochemistry, physiology and anatomy in the ventral uvula of pigeons
DownloadFall 2011
The fundamental unit of organization in the cerebellum is the parasagittal zone, which can be seen in anatomical connections, physiological response properties, and molecular composition. This parasagittal arrangement is evolutionarily conserved and appears necessary for information processing....
