Optogenetic dissection of the dopaminergic circuitry involved in memory consolidation
… tagging-and-capture’ (STC) theory of cellular memory consolidation holds that memory persistence can be altered by prior or subsequent patterns of neural activity (Redondo & Morris 2011). The aim of this thesis was to develop a realistic model of everyday memory for mice and use the optogenetic …

The role of estrogen receptor manipulation on persistent fear memory induced by traumatic stress exposure
… psychiatric disorder which stems from fear memory persistence after exposure to a traumatic experience. PTSD is associated with a high socioeconomic cost, as well as a higher prevalence rate in women than in men, though the reason behind this sex difference remains unknown. A possible …

Neurobiological mechanisms underlying episodic memory retrieval
Memory is a central function of the brain and is essential to everyday life. Memory disorders range from those of memory transience, such as Alzheimer's disease, to those of memory persistence, such as post-traumatic stress disorder. To treat memory disorders, a thorough understanding of memory …

Sequential Transcriptional Gates in The Thalamo-Cortical Circuit Coordinate Memory Consolidation
… circuit that may be responsible for extending memory time-scales. I began by developing a virtual reality-based behavioral paradigm where, by varying the frequency of learned associations, mice formed multiple memories but only consolidated some, while forgetting others, over the span of weeks. …

Reducing memory persistency overheads with transparent out-of-place updates
Recent advances in memory technology have led to the creation of high-performance, non-volatile alternatives to traditional DRAM, known as non-volatile memory (NVM). While this technology has provided immense opportunities to system designers, it has also presented new challenges since applications …
