East Hanover, NJ. April 1, 2021. A team of New Jersey researchers has shown that changes in perceptual certainty and response bias, two central metrics of signal detection theory (SDT), correlate with changes in cognitive fatigue. They also show that SDT measures change as a function of changes in brain activation. This finding was reported in
The authors are Glenn Wylie, DPhil, Brian Yao, PhD, and John DeLuca, PhD, of Kessler Foundation, and Joshua Sandry, PhD, of Montclair State University. ....

LA JOLLA (April 1, 2021) Neurons lack the ability to replicate their DNA, so they re constantly working to repair damage to their genome. Now, a new study by Salk scientists finds that these repairs are not random, but instead focus on protecting certain genetic hot spots that appear to play a critical role in neural identity and function.
The findings, published in the April 2, 2021, issue of
Science, give novel insights into the genetic structures involved in aging and neurodegeneration, and could point to the development of potential new therapies for diseases such Alzheimer s, Parkinson s and other age-related dementia disorders. ....

Whisker simulation gives insight into mammals' sense of touch

We know your cat s whiskers are handsome but you can t even see the cool part.
The base of the whisker, which is responsible for sending touch signals to the brain, is hidden inside the follicle, a deep pocket that embeds the whisker within the skin. Because this section of the whisker is obscured, understanding precisely how whiskers communicate touch to the brain has been a longstanding mystery. ....

Connecting the dots between engagement and learning


 E-Mail
We ve all heard the adage, If at first you don t succeed, try, try again, but new research from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh finds that it isn t all about repetition. Rather, internal states like engagement can also have an impact on learning.
The collaborative research, published in
Nature Neuroscience, examined how changes in internal states, such as arousal, attention, motivation, and engagement can affect the learning process using brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. Findings suggest that changes in internal states can systematically influence how behavior improves with learning, thus paving the way for more effective methods to teach people skills quickly, and to a higher level of proficiency. ....
