Modelling compulsive actions in rats and mice: The back-translation of value-modulated attentional capture from humans to rodents Open
Value-modulated attentional capture (VMAC) refers to the tendency for highly valued cues to capture attention even when counterproductive to an individual’s goals. VMAC is thought to measure incentive salience and has been shown to correla…

Maternal immune activation and estrogen receptor modulation induce sex-specific dopamine-related behavioural and molecular alterations in adult rat offspring Open
Dopamine dysregulation contributes to psychosis and cognitive deficits in schizophrenia that can be modelled in rodents by inducing maternal immune activation (MIA). The selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulator, raloxifene, can improve p…

Danger Changes the Way the Brain Consolidates Neutral Information; and Does So by Interacting with Processes Involved in the Encoding of That Information Open
This study examined the effect of danger on consolidation of neutral information in two regions of the rat (male and female) medial temporal lobe: the perirhinal cortex (PRh) and basolateral amygdala complex (BLA). The neutral information …

Competing contextual processes rely on the infralimbic and prelimbic medial prefrontal cortices in the rat Open
Ambiguous relationships between events may be established using interference procedures such as latent inhibition, extinction or counterconditioning. Under these conditions, the retrieval of individual associations between a stimulus and o…

Outcome devaluation by specific satiety disrupts sensory-specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer Open
Reward predictive cues can selectively motivate instrumental behaviors that predict the same rewarding outcomes, an effect known as specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT). This selective effect is thought to be mediated by a rep…

Orbitofrontal Cortex is necessary for the behavioural expression, but not learning, of Pavlovian conditioned inhibition Open
Orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) lesions cause deficits in flexible behavioural control, most notably response inhibition and has historically been linked to theories of response inhibition. This general inhibition hypothesis of OFC function has…

Dopamine D1 and D2 Receptors Are Important for Learning About Neutral-Valence Relationships in Sensory Preconditioning Open
Dopamine neurotransmission has been ascribed multiple functions with respect to both motivational and associative processes in reward-based learning, though these have proven difficult to tease apart. In order to better describe the role o…

The rodent lateral orbitofrontal cortex as an arbitrator selecting between model-based and model-free learning systems. Open
Our understanding of orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) function has progressed remarkably over the past decades in part due to theoretical advances in associative and reinforcement learning theories. These theoretical accounts of OFC function hav…
