This study investigates the rate-dependent effects of amphetamine on attentional performance in rats using the 5C-CPT task, finding both direct and inverse relationships between baseline performance and drug-induced changes.

This paper investigates the effects of the D3 agonist PD 128907 on compulsive behavior and decision making in rats using the 5C-CPT task, finding it more effective than Quinpirole in simulating OCD-like behaviors.

This study investigates the role of GABAergic inhibition in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex on novel object recognition in rats, finding that hippocampal inhibition is critical while prefrontal inhibition is not.

The paper shows that male 3xTg Alzheimer's model mice exhibit executive dysfunction linked to altered synaptic plasticity and gene expression in the medial prefrontal cortex.

The paper uses functional ultrasound imaging to study memory recall in mice, finding changes in neural connectivity patterns during recent and remote fear memory retrieval.

This study identifies a dichotomic hypo-connected resting and hyper-responsive active phenotype in a mouse model of early tauopathy, with implications for Alzheimer's disease.

This study adapts the novel-object recognition task to measure how C57BL/6J male mice allocate attention to objects labeled with female odour versus other odours or novel objects.
