Makris N, Kennedy DN, Boriel DL, Rosene DL Methods 2010 Mar;50(3):166-77 PMID: 19577648 Abstract Rhesus monkeys, whose typical lifespan can be as long as 30 years in the presence of veterinary care, undergo a cognitive decline as a function of age. While cortical neurons are largely preserved in the cerebral… read more →
Lyall AE, Swanson J, Liu C, Blumenthal TD, Turner CP Exp Brain Res 2009 Aug;197(3):215-22 PMID: 19565228 Abstract The acoustic startle reflex in rats can be inhibited if a prepulse stimulus is presented just before the startle stimulus (prepulse inhibition; PPI). When postnatal day 7 (P7) rats are exposed to… read more →

Makris N, Pandya DN Brain Struct Funct 2009 Feb;213(3):343-58 PMID: 19104833 Abstract Experimental and imaging studies in monkeys have outlined various long association fiber pathways within the fronto-temporo-parietal region. In the present study, the trajectory of the extreme capsule (EmC) fibers has been delineated in five human subjects using DT-MRI… read more →
Tanev KS, Yilma M Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2009 Apr;111(3):282-91 PMID: 18995952 Abstract Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by prions. Typically CJD presents with a triad of rapidly progressive dementia, abnormal movements (e.g., myoclonus) and electroencephalographic (EEG) changes. Recently, CJD has been subdivided into subtypes based… read more →
