Towards a Better Treatment of Parkinson's disease
… in Parkinsonian animals. Electrophysiology (extracellular single-cell recording in the globus pallidus) and behavioral (cylinder test) studies were performed to determine if co-administration of a small dose of the D2 antagonist raclopride with L-DOPA results in an enhanced therapeutic effect of …

Processing of quantitative information, investigated with fMRI.
… of such a system has been demonstrated by use of single-cell recording, in the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) of the macaque monkey. In this thesis, we searched for evidence of number-sensitive coding in humans. Using a priming paradigm, we found behavioural evidence for a number-sensitive …

CELLULAR CODING PROPERTIES OF GOAL DIRECTED BEHAVIOR IN THE MEDIODORSAL AND INTRALAMINAR NUCLEUS OF THE RAT: COMPARISONS TO PREFRONTAL CORTEX
… purpose of this dissertation was to characterize cellular coding properties of these nuclei in central thalamus using electrophysiological measures in awake, behaving rats performing a dynamic delayed non-match to position (DNMTP) task. Two major aims were developed. The first of these was based …

Orientation-specific Control of Attention
… bars at all. However, a peripheral orientation singleton that matched the target orientation captured attention and severely impaired central target identification. In addition, a peripheral orientation singleton that was orthogonal to the target orientation also captured attention and produced …

Neural processing of chemosensory information from the locust legs
… studied by using neurobiotin backfilling and single cell recording. Results indicated that sensitivity of the prothoracic leg and its reflex are faster in comparison to the mesothoracic leg which could be explained by the dense spiking of the sensory neurones of the basiconic sensilla in the …

Mechanisms of hippocampal relational memory binding
