Fright or Delight? Dopamine-Mediated Fear Response in the Amygdala
Since little is known about how dopamine affects aversive learning in humans, Frick et al. recently sought to describe the role of dopamine in fear memory formation within the human amygdala, which we review in this blog post.

#ExpertAnswers: Fiona Harrison on Early Alzheimer’s Disease
Dr. Fiona Harrison, discusses how vitamin C deficiency and exposure to toxins can impact glutamate uptake and clearance, and how even small changes in neural signaling can be detected by monitoring EEG activity and correlated with performance in learning and memory tasks.
Improving Sleep to Slow the Progression of Alzheimer’s Disease
Join Rohan Jagirdar, PhD as he discusses his research on EEG activity in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease to determine the effects of improved sleep on disease progression.
EEG Monitoring Approaches to Predict Learning and Memory Changes in Early Alzheimer’s Disease
Dr. Fiona Harrison discusses how dietary deficiency and exposure to toxins can impact glutamate uptake and clearance, and the subsequent changes in neural signaling can be detected through altered EEG activity and performance on learning and memory tasks.
