Bruce R, Weber M, Bova A, Volkman R, Jacobs C, Sivakumar K, et al.
Elife . 2025 Jan; 13. PMID: 39812105
The role of striatal pathways in cognitive processing is unclear. We studied dorsomedial striatal cognitive processing during interval timing, an elementary cognitive task that requires mice to estimate intervals of...

With continued levodopa treatment, most patients with Parkinson disease (PD) develop levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LIDs)-abnormal involuntary movements (AIMs) characterized primarily by chorea. Clinically, LIDs depend on nigrostriatal degeneration and sensitization to...

eNeuro . 2021 Oct; 8(5). PMID: 34625461
The ability to learn dexterous motor skills is a fundamental aspect of human behavior. However, the underlying neural circuit mechanisms for dexterous skill learning are unclear. Advancing our understanding of...

Ellens D, Gaidica M, Toader A, Peng S, Shue S, John T, et al.
J Neurosci Methods . 2016 Jul; 271:119-27. PMID: 27450925
Background: Single pellet reaching is an established task for studying fine motor control in which rats reach for, grasp, and eat food pellets in a stereotyped sequence. Most incarnations of...
