When animals walk overground, mechanical stimuli activate various receptors located in
muscles, joints and skin. Afferents from these mechanoreceptors project to neuronal …

Perhaps the most fundamental issue in the broad field of neuronal substrates of learning
and memory concerns the physical/biological mechanisms under lying long-term memory …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses evolutionary aspects of injury-related behavior,
and examines behavioral, physiological, and molecular aspects of potentially adaptive …

Reviews literature aimed at studying the nature of the" engram," the set of physical
processes and changes in the brain which forms the basis of learning. The general research …

We show that classically conditioned eyelid responses are retained in albino rabbits
following decerebration. The presence of these responses represents retention rather than …

Four experiments are reported that explore whether spinal neurons can support instrumental
learning. During training, one group of spinal rats (master) received legshock whenever one …

We develop a computational model of the neural substrates of elementary associative
learning, using the neural circuits known to govern classical conditioning of the gill …

Single Paramecium caudatum were conditioned by pairing ac-generated electric shock (US)
with a vibratory stimulus (CS) produced by an auditory speaker. Naive paramecia subjected …

This review focuses on the role of the cerebellum in regulating cutaneomuscular reflexes
and provides a hypothesis regarding the way in which this action contributes to the …

Carrier, Lynda, Edna Brustein, and Serge Rossignol. Locomotion of the hindlimbs after
neurectomy of ankle flexors in intact and spinal cats: a model for the study of locomotor …
