Further evaluation of prompt density, rate of reinforcement, and the persistence of manding Open
Previous research has evaluated the effects of prompt rates on the rate of communicative behavior. More recent research has suggested that dense prompting can result in communicative behavior that is more resistant to change. However, exis…

A phenotypic screening platform for chronic pain therapeutics using all-optical electrophysiology Open
Chronic pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA) remains an intractable problem with few effective treatment options. New approaches are needed to model the disease biology and to drive discovery of therapeutics. Here, we present an in vit…
