Itch is a multidimensional experience involving various brain regions associated with
sensory perception and emotion, as well as an urge to scratch employing the motor system …

To obtain more of a particular uncertain reward, animals must learn to actively overcome the
lack of reward and adjust behavior to obtain it again. The neural mechanisms underlying …

Background Hippocampus and entorhinal cortex are key players of learning and memory.
Despite their established role in memory processes, the contribution of muscarinic receptor …

Background Communication between brain areas has been implicated in a wide range of
cognitive and emotive functions and is impaired in numerous mental disorders. In rodent …

Many works have been performed to understand the mechanisms of the formation and
persistence of memory. However, it is not fully understood whether the decay of long-term …

How the coordination of neuronal spiking and brain rhythms between hippocampal
subregions supports memory function remains elusive. We studied the interregional …

Determining how an agent decides between a small, immediate versus a larger, delayed
reward has provided insight into the psychological and neural basis of decision-making. The …

Cognitive impairment, particularly prefrontal function, has been reported in patients with
restless legs syndrome. However, working memory performance in patients with restless …

The hippocampal formation (HF) is implicated in a comparator that detects sensory conflict
(mismatch) among convergent inputs. This suggests that new place cells encoding the new …
