Complete functional characterization of sensory neurons by system identification

Article Abstract:

The system identification (SI) algorithms that are used in sensory neurophysiology are discussed. The SI experiments have shown that the current models provide a good description of the functional properties of peripheral sensory neurons and also provide a quantitative framework for integrating findings across many stages of cortical processing.

Ventral tegmental area neurons in learned appetitive behavior and positive reinforcement

Article Abstract:

The article presents the role of the ventral tegmental area neurons in the appetitive behaviors by circuit analysis. The neurons at each relay contribute to circuit operation and synaptic connections of behavior change with learning.
