Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Tissue Oxygenation in Awake, Behaving Mice
… intracellular [Ca2+] in response to prolonged whisker stimulation. The magnitude and kinetics of these changes were related to the cerebrovascular segment within the cranial window. Unlike the early component (1-5sec), the magnitude of the late hemodynamic component (20-30sec) was strongly …

Neuronal Correlates of Reward Contingency in the Rat Thalamocortical System
… recorded from freely behaving rats performing a whisker-based tactile discrimination t-+ask. Multielectrode arrays were chronically implanted to record simultaneously from the main stages of the trigeminal thalamocortical pathways involved in whisking: the primary somatosensory cortex (S1), the …

The role of the kappa opioid receptor system in forebrain dependent associative learning
… we have used the associative learning paradigm whisker trace eyeblink (WTEB) conditioning. With WTEB conditioning animals are trained to associate a neutral conditioned stimulus (CS - whisker stimulation), following a stimulus free trace interval with a salient unconditioned stimulus (US – …

Examination of neocortical plasticity during forebrain-dependent trace-associative learning tasks
… conditioned stimulus (CS) (i.e., tone or whisker deflection) paired with a salient, unconditioned stimulus (US) (i.e., mild periorbital eyeshock) to elicit an unconditioned response (UR) (i.e., eyeblink). With multiple CS-US pairings, subjects learn to associate the CS with the US and …
