Action Representation in the Mouse Parieto-Frontal Network
Tombaz, Tuce; Dunn, Benjamin Adric; Hovde, Karoline; Cubero, Ryan John Abat; Mimica, Bartul; Mamidanna, Pranav; Roudi, Yasser; Whitlock, Jonathan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and frontal motor areas comprise a cortical network supporting goal-directed behaviour, with functions including sensorimotor transformations and decision making. In primates, this network ... -
Architecture and Organization of Mouse Posterior Parietal Cortex Relative to Extrastriate Areas
Hovde, Karoline; Gianatti, Michele; Witter, Menno; Whitlock, Jonathan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is a multifaceted region of cortex, contributing to several cognitive processes including sensorimotor integration and spatial navigation. Although recent years have seen a considerable ... -
Brain-wide connectivity underlying habenular activity in zebrafish
Bartoszek-Kandler, Ewelina (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:290, Doctoral thesis, 2022) -
Connecting the Dots: Integrating Visual Projections, Observational Learning, and Behavior Representation in Rodent Prefrontal Cortices
Rautio, Ida Välikangas (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:17, Doctoral thesis, 2024)The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been studied extensively across species, across functions and across experimental paradigms. Despite this, we still have not fully elucidated what this brain area truly does and how, ... -
Effect of omega-3 fatty acids in regulating synaptic plasticity-associated proteins
Terroba, Paula (Master thesis, 2020)With an increasing number of the population reaching older age, it is important to find lifestyle interventions that may counteract cognitive decline and dementia. Enrichment of diet with omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) ... -
Effects of immune dysregulation on brain structural integrity and depressive symptoms
Ignacio Grigaites (Master thesis, 2022)Abstract will be available on 2025-12-31 -
Involvement of the Anterior Cingulate Cortex during Task Learning in Rats
Holmberg, Ella Holt (Master thesis, 2021)Å undersøke læring er et viktig aspekt i nevrovitenskap, da det innebærer en rekke prosesser nødvendige for en arts overlevelse. Et hjerneområde som har blitt forsket på i relasjon til læring og tilhørende kognitive ... -
Learning functional connectivity in the under-sampled regime
Bulso, Nicola (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:128, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Læring funksjonell tilkobling i under-samplet regime Siden de første dagene har nevrovitenskap forsker merket at den elektriske aktiviteten til noen nevroner i hjernen korrelerer med spesifikke trekk i den ekstern verden. ... -
A Machine Learning Approach to Investigate Fronto-Parietal Neural Ensemble Dynamics During Complex
Gheorghiu, Medorian; Ciuparu, Andrei; Mimica, Bartul; Whitlock, Jonathan; Mureşan, Raul (Chapter, 2020)Brain circuits exhibit very complex dynamics, where individual neurons fire action potentials determining coordinated activity patterns. During behavior, a multitude of brain areas are engaged in planning and execution. A ... -
Movement Coding at the Mesoscale in Posterior Parietal Cortex
Whitlock, Jonathan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Neural correlates of movement planning have been studied most commonly using signals isolated from single cells. However, in this issue of Neuron, Wilber et al. (2017) show that movement trajectories are encoded and replayed ... -
Navigating actions through the rodent parietal cortex
Whitlock, Jonathan (Journal article, 2014)The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) participates in a manifold of cognitive functions, including visual attention, working memory, spatial processing, and movement planning. Given the vast interconnectivity of PPC with ... -
Organization of Posterior Parietal–Frontal Connections in the Rat
Olsen, Grethe Mari; Hovde, Karoline; Kondo, Hideki; Sakshaug, Teri; Haaland Sømme, Hanna; Whitlock, Jonathan; Witter, Menno (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Recent investigations of the rat posterior parietal cortex (PPC) suggest that this region plays a central role in action control together with the frontal cortical areas. Posterior parietal-frontal cortical connections ... -
Posterior parietal cortex
Whitlock, Jonathan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The posterior parietal cortex, along with temporal and prefrontal cortices, is one of the three major associative regions in the cortex of the mammalian brain. It is situated between the visual cortex at the caudal pole ... -
Reward-based observational learning: Importance of social information and Anterior Cingulate Cortex for attention
Kurup, Devika (Master thesis, 2021)Observasjonslæring er en naturlig egenskap som er bevart fra gnagere til primater, men det nøyaktige underliggende nevronale grunnlaget er fortsatt ukjent. Nevroutviklingsforstyrrelser som autisme blitt assosiert med et ... -

Visual and tactile representation of social interactions in mouse secondary motor and anterior cingulate cortices
Demirci, Ece Gözde (Master thesis, 2019)Secondary motor (M2) and anterior cingulate (ACC) cortices are frontal association areas in the rodent brain that receive substantial information from several primary and associative areas, including visual and posterior ...
