The effects of changes in the environment on the spatial firing of hippocampal complex-spike cells

RU Muller, JL Kubie - Journal of Neuroscience, 1987 - Soc Neuroscience
Using the techniques set out in the preceding paper (Muller et al., 1987), we investigated the
response of place cells to changes in the animal's environment. The standard apparatus …

Early postnatal alcohol exposure that produces high blood alcohol levels impairs development of spatial navigation learning

CR Goodlett, SJ Kelly, JR West - Psychobiology, 1987 - Springer
Artificial rearing procedures were used to expose groups of rats to alcohol during Postnatal

Some limitations on the use of distal cues in place navigation by rats

RJ Sutherland, GL Chew, JC Baker, RC Linggard - Psychobiology, 1987 - Springer
Place navigation by rats in the Morris (1981) water task was studied in two experiments. In
