Abstract: Summary To interrogate particular neuronal pathways in nonhuman primates under natural and stress-free conditions, we applied designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) technology to common marmosets. We injected adeno-associated virus vectors expressing the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/sleep/zsad077.0046
Abstract: Sleep influences various cognitive and physiologic processes; however, the mechanisms through which sleep affects these different functions are not fully understood. The Nucleus Accumbens (NAc) was recently identified as a sleep regulating center. We hypothesized… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms23116092
Abstract: The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is one of the key brain areas involved in aversive learning, especially fear memory formation. Studies of aversive learning in the BLA have largely focused on neuronal function, while the role… read more here.
