Zebrafish dorsal habenula is required for updating learned behaviors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Operant learning requires multiple cognitive processes, such as learning, prediction of potential outcomes, and decision-making. It is less clear how interactions of these processes lead to the behavioral adaptations that ... -
Development and topographic organization of subicular projections to lateral septum in the rat brain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)One of the main subcortical targets of hippocampal formation efferents is the lateral septum. Previous studies on the subicular projections, as a main output structure of the hippocampus, have shown a clear topographic ... -
Neural and behavioural correlates at the upper thermal limit in the zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(Master thesis, 2020)Kristisk temperatur maksimum (KTmax), definert som temperaturen hvor bevegelse blir uorganisert og yteevnen går tapt, er ofte brukt til å estimere dyrearters øvre temperatur toleranse. På grunn av de pågående klima ... -
Development of an online cognitive monitoring system for detecting looming-related responses in the infant brain
(Master thesis, 2020)For vår overlevelse er det avgjørende å kunne reagere raskt på et objekt som kommer mot deg med høy hastighet, og utøver nødvendige manøvrer for å unngå en forestående kollisjon. Disse objektene refererer vi til som ... -
Impact of altered Alkyladenine DNA glycosylase expression on hippocampal cytoarchitecture
(Master thesis, 2020)DNA damage can be caused through exposure to both exogenous and endogenous agents. Through by-products of physiological cellular processes neurons are constantly exposed to agents that can induce DNA base lesions. Base ... -
Defensive Behaviors - Manipulations of the Habenula-Raphe System in Freely Behaving Juvenile Zebrafish
(Master thesis, 2020)I møte med fare er frykt nødvendig for å initiere «fight-or-flight»-repsonsen, og angst fungerer som en mekanisme for risikovurdering for å estimere nivået av trussel og riktig atferds-respons. Til sammen utgjør disse to ... -
The Role of Cilia on Zebrafish Olfaction & Behaviour
(Master thesis, 2020)The cilium is a ubiquitous organelle found across species on a wide range of cell types. It is a highly varied structure able to fulfill a plethora of functions; from motile cilia serving in cell motility and establishing ... -
Spatial representation of a virtual environment in a deep neural network
(Master thesis, 2020)De siste tiårene har forskere gjort store framskritt i å karakterisere det nevrobiologiske fundamentet for spatial kognisjon. Særskilt har nevrobiologiske funn ikke vært begrenset til aktiv utforskning av den fysiske ... -
Towards modeling of neuronal networks in HUWE1-induced XLID
(Master thesis, 2020)Intellektuell forstyrrelse (ID) er en utviklingsforstyrrelse karakterisert av manglende intellektuelle funksjoner og adaptive evner. Denne lidelsen rammer tilnærmet 2% av den vestlige populasjonen. X-koblet ID (XLID) er ... -
Sleep and Pain: An EEG study of how sleep affects pain perception
(Master thesis, 2020)Bakgrunn: Eksperimentelle studier har vist at søvnmangel er assosiert med endringer i smertepersepsjon. Flere hjerneavbildningsstudier trengs for å utvikle objektive nevrofysiologiske korrelater til smerte. Hensikt: Denne ... -
Stimulus-specific behavioral responses of zebrafish to a large range of odors exhibit individual variability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Odor-driven behaviors such as feeding, mating, and predator avoidance are crucial for animal survival. The neural pathways processing these behaviors have been well characterized in a number of species, and ... -
Placental inflammation by HMGB1 activation of TLR4 at the syncytium
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Introduction: Normal pregnancy is characterized by an elevated inflammatory state involving the placenta. The placental inflammation is further increased in preeclampsia, resulting in release of harmful danger signals to ... -
Interhemispheric connections between olfactory bulbs improve odor detection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Interhemispheric connections enable interaction and integration of sensory information in bilaterian nervous systems and are thought to optimize sensory computations. However, the cellular and spatial organization of ... -
Placental inflammation by HMGB1 activation of TLR4 at the syncytium
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Normal pregnancy is characterized by an elevated inflammatory state involving the placenta. The placental inflammation is further increased in preeclampsia, resulting in release of harmful danger signals to the maternal ... -
Learning functional connectivity in the under-sampled regime
(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. ... -
Human hippocampal theta oscillations reflect sequential dependencies during spatial planning.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Movement-related theta oscillations in rodent hippocampus coordinate ‘forward sweeps’ of location-specific neural activity that could be used to evaluate spatial trajectories online. This raises the possibility that increases ... -
Action Representation in the Mouse Parieto-Frontal Network
(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 ... -
Enhancer-Driven Gene Expression (EDGE) Enables the Generation of Viral Vectors Specific to Neuronal Subtypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Although a variety of remarkable molecular tools for studying neural circuits have recently beendeveloped, the ability to deploy them in particular neuronal subtypes is limited by the fact that nativepromoters are almost ... -
