Development of and proposed applications for tetrodes in functional mapping of rodent sensorimotor striatum
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
The Wilson-McNaughton tetrode preparation for awake, behaving rodents was adapted by a group of investigators for use in dorsolateral striatum. Measures were taken to improve the reliability of reaching the target area in ...
A general method for three color STED microscopy with one depletion laser : application to primary neuronal culture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Recent advances in the field of optical nanoscopy have equipped molecular neuroscientists with the means to investigate sub-synaptic phenomena with unprecedented spatial resolution. Indeed, early studies employing these ...
Lost in translation : on the language-specificity of numerical representation as viewed through a bilingual prism
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Using size change to predict free-fall trajectories
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)
Optimal region coloring by doing image chunking
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
Mechanisms Underlying Learning Mediated Plasticity in the Adult Mammalian Olfactory Bulb
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)
The olfactory system is rapidly modified by learning, starting at the first informational relay station. The olfactory bulb retains high levels of plasticity throughout adulthood and undergoes lasting structural changes ...
Predicting Cognitive Reflection from Digital Fingerprints
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)
While social media is beneficial in facilitating social connections and spreading knowledge on a large scale, its negative impacts — the propagation of misinformation through networks and the emergence of echo chambers in ...
Individual differences in sentence processing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
This thesis aims to elucidate shared mechanisms between retrieval in sentence processing and memory retrieval processes in nonlinguistic domains using an individual differences approach. Prior research in individual ...
Viral delivery of recombinant growth hormone to rescue effects of chronic stress on hippocampal learning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
Chronic stress has been linked to variation in gene regulation in the hippocampus (HIP) among other areas. These lead to cytoskeletal and volumetric rearrangements in various nuclei of the central nervous system and are ...
