In patients with Parkinson's disease and in animal models of this disorder, neurons in the
basal ganglia and related regions in thalamus and cortex show changes that can be …

Motor thalamus (Mthal) is implicated in the control of movement because it is strategically
located between motor areas of the cerebral cortex and motor-related subcortical structures …

Interval timing and working memory are critical components of cognition that are supported
by neural oscillations in prefrontal–striatal–hippocampal circuits. In this review, the …

In the basal ganglia, focused rhythmicity is an important feature of network activity at certain
stages of motor processing. In disease, however, the basal ganglia develop amplified …

Many debilitating neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by
dopamine neurotransmitter dysregulation. Monitoring subsecond dopamine release …

Hcrt gene inactivation in mice leads to behavioral state instability, abnormal transitions to
paradoxical sleep, and cataplexy, hallmarks of narcolepsy. Sleep homeostasis is, however …

Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter that maintains the balance within the basal
ganglia between the direct pathway, which promotes movement, and the indirect pathway …

Compelling evidence demonstrates that the external globus pallidus (GPe) plays a key role
in processing sensorimotor information. An anatomical projection from the GPe to the dorsal …

The present article provides a historical review of the place and response learning plus-
maze tasks with a focus on the behavioral and neurobiological findings. The article begins …

See Bell et al.(doi: 10.1093/awx063) for a scientific commentary on this article. Impaired dual
