    Abstract : Striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) play a crucial role in various motor and cognitive functions. They are separated into those belonging to the direct pathway (dMSNs) and the indirect pathway (iMSNs) of the basal ganglia, depending on whether they express D1 or D2 type dopamine receptors, respectively.

  4. 2. Functional Imaging of Spinal Locomotor Networks

    Author : Chetan Nagaraja; Klas Kullander; Gilad Silberberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Central pattern generators; two-photon microscopy; locomotor rhythm; multiple rhythmicities; inhibitory neurotransmission; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap;

    Abstract : Movement is necessary for the survival of most animals. The spinal cord contains neuronal networks that are capable of motor coordination and of producing different movements. In particular, a very reduced neuronal network in the spinal cord can produce simple rhythmic outputs even in the absence of descending or sensory inputs. READ MORE

  5. 3. On learning in mice and machines : continuous population codes in natural and artificial neural networks

    Author : Emil Wärnberg; Konstantinos Meletis; Arvind Kumar; Gilad Silberberg; Mark Humphries; KTH; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi; Tillämpad matematik och beräkningsmatematik; Applied and Computational Mathematics;

    Abstract : Neural networks, whether artificial in a computer or natural in the brain, could represent information either using discrete symbols or continuous vector spaces. In this thesis, I explore how neural networks can represent continuous vector spaces, using both simulated neural networks and analysis of real neural population data recorded from mice. READ MORE
