A cAMP pathway underlying reward prediction in associative learning.

27 Oct 2008 In associative learning, animals learn to associate external cues or their own actions with appetitive or aversive outcomes. Although the dopamine (DA) system and the striatum/nucleus accumbens have been implicated in both the pavlovian and ... Read more...

Material-specific neural correlates of memory retrieval.

6 Oct 2008 It is well established that the neural activity engaged during memory retrieval varies with the kinds of information that are recovered. Less well established is whether this activity reflects online recovery of information, or processes operating ... Read more...

Differential effects of normal aging on memory for odor-place and object-place associations.

29 Sep 2008 Odor-place and object-place associative memory were compared in healthy older (over the age of 65) and young (18 to 25 years of age) adults. Twelve spatial locations were defined on a tabletop board. Either six odors or six objects were presented ... Read more...
