Abstract: <p>Damage to the hippocampus (HPC) typically causes retrograde amnesia for contextual fear conditioning. Reinstating the conditioning over several sessions, however, can mitigate the retrograde amnesic effects. Reinstatements, thus, establish a sufficiently strong memory in non-HPC systems to no longer require the HPC for expression, meaning that it has become HPC independent. This thesis… more

Name(s): Creator (cre): Beben, Karolina, Thesis advisor (ths): Brown, Liana E, Degree committee member (dgc): Lehmann, Hugo, Degree committee member (dgc): Henriques, Denise Y. P, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>We investigated whether hand-proximity effects arise from the recruitment of visual-tactile bimodal cells. In Experiment 1, we executed right-hand open-loop reaching movements to targets, presented either near or far from the resting left-hand, and after applying repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to suppress neuronal activity in the PMd and AIP, in Experiment 2.
