Conventional wisdom suggests that the body’s sensory systems should be consistent, so that a given sensory stimulus always produces more-or-less the same signal to the brain, which can then retrieve related memories or information. However, using optical neurophysiological tools to observe the earliest parts of the mouse olfactory system, we have found that actually these signals are highly flexible, such that different sensory experiences and previously learned information radically affect the way sensory stimuli are processed in the brain. The first stage of sensory processing in the olfactory system takes place in the olfactory bulb, where axons from olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) in the nose segregate by receptor type and converge into one or two glomeruli on the surface of the bulb. The brain’s initial (primary) neural code for the identity of an odor in the nose is thus the spatiotemporal pattern of olfactory bulb glomeruli receiving synaptic input from OSNs, which can be modulated by local circuits in the glomerular layer of the bulb. Here, we demonstrate that these primary odor representations are changed in vivo through simple environmental manipulations, such as olfactory sensory deprivation or odor exposure. Subsequent experiments show that passive odor exposure leads to changes in temporal patterns of OSN synaptic output that are correlated with perceptual changes in odor quality. We move on from simple environmental manipulations to explore how emotional learning can influence early sensory processing, and surprisingly find that discriminative olfactory fear conditioning can selectively enhance the synaptic output of OSNs during the presentation of threat-predictive odorants. By contrast, when conditioned fear generalizes across olfactory stimuli that are quite different from a threat-predictive odor, there is a corresponding facilitation of odor-evoked activity in inhibitory interneurons in the olfactory bulb that generalizes across threatening and non-threatening odors. These experience-dependent effects may be further modulated by individual differences in endogenous factors such as the expression of certain transduction proteins or circulating levels of sex hormones that can independently shape primary sensory odor representations. Collectively, the results from these experiments demonstrate that early neural representations of odors are highly malleable on the basis of prior sensory experience and learning, even as early as the primary sensory input to the brain. Such plasticity presumably maximizes the detection and discrimination of meaningful sensory stimuli in a constantly changing olfactory environment, and is of broad importance for downstream brain regions that receive input from the bulb.

ENGLISH ABSTRAST: The use of robotics in post-stroke patient rehabilitation and research has increased substantially during the last two decades. However, it has also led to important social and economic concerns, as the number of patients in developing countries that can afford the expensive outpatient rehabilitation, and therefore be treated, are limited. Not much is known about alternative lowcost rehabilitation devices. The motivation behind this thesis is to eventually address two of the most prominent limiting complications in stroke recovery programs, which are the time available for patient engagement, and the cost for outpatient rehabilitation. It presents the experimental design, construction, and analysis of a prototype stroke rehabilitation device, based on the principles of sensory stimulation therapy and neuroplasticity. The main objective of this project was to come to the conclusion whether it is possible to sense different electrobiological potentials in the brain during discrete events, from the constructed wearable sensory feedback device. The device is experimentally tested through the implementation of a case-control observational Event-Related Potential (ERP) study on healthy test subjects. The experimental results demonstrate the detection of cognitive and sensory-motor brain activity in response to, and in anticipation of, a somatic sensation. Electroencephalography (EEG) data is analyzed and decomposed to replicate three different ERPs, namely the P200 exogenous-sensory and -visual component, and the P300 endogenous component. The statistical analysis results indicate that a definite correlation is found between the Visual vs. P200 (F = 1.274, p = 0.28535) and the P200 vs. P300 (F = 64.253; p < 0.001) components when compared to previous ERP studies. The present evidence supports the use of mechanical-assisted therapy and indicates that potentially cost saving alternative rehabilitation techniques are possible in their use of providing sensory feedback, and recording and analyzing EEG feedback.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die gebruik van robotika in die rehabilitasie en navorsing van pasiënte na beroerte het gedurende die afgelope twee dekades aansienlik toegeneem. Dit het egter ook gelei tot sekere nadelige sosiale en ekonomiese gevolge, aangesien die aantal pasiënte wat die duur buitepasiënt-rehabilitasie kan bekostig, en dus in effek behandel kan word, afneem. Buitendien is daar min inligting bekend oor alternatiewe laekoste-rehabilitasietoestelle. Die motivering van hierdie tesis is om uiteindelik twee van die mees prominente komplikasies in beroerte herstellingsprogramme, naamlik die tyd wat beskikbaar is vir pasiënt behandeling en die koste verbonde aan buitepasiënt-rehabilitasie, aan te spreek. Hierdie tesis handel oor die proefondervindelike toetsing, ontwikkeling en analisering van ’n lae-koste beroerte-rehabilitasietoestel prototipe, wat op die beginsels van sensoriese stimulasie terapie en neuroplastisiteit berus. Die hoofoogmerk van hierdie projek…

▼ Synaptic plasticity is the activity-dependent modification of the strength of synaptic transmission. It is important for learning and memory. One of the mechanisms mediating synaptic plasticity at glutamatergic synapses is regulation of the postsynaptic α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptor (AMPAR), which governs excitatory synaptic transmission. Perineuronal heparan sulfates (HS) have been implicated in controlling the open-state of AMPARs. Earlier findings in our laboratory showed heparanase expression and secretion of proheparanase by hippocampal neurons. Recombinant proheparanase triggered neuronal co-internalization of HS-proteoglycans and AMPAR subunits; this led to decreases in basal synaptic strength and long term potention of synaptic transmission at Schaffer collateral synapses of the hippocampus. The findings suggested proheparanase acting as a negative regulator of synaptic plasticity but the underlying mechanism remained unclear. We hypothesized that neuronal secretion of proheparanase is localized toperi-synaptic regions such that proheparanase mediates clustering of peri-synaptic HS-proteoglycans and AMPARs for internalization of the protein cluster. To address this, protein kinase C-mediated secretion of proheparanase was enhanced by phorbol ester treatment of hippocampal slices. Synaptosome preparations from the treated slices indicated enrichment in proheparanase, suggesting that proheparanase was directed to synaptic terminals for localized secretion. With use of the hippocampal synaptosomes, pull-down experiments targeting syndecan-3and heparanase found AMPAR subunits, both GluR1 and GluR2/3, indicating that they formed clusters in the peri-synaptic area. Heparitinase pre-treated hippocampal neurons in culture led to lower levels of internalized AMPAR subunits, both GluR1 and GluR2/3,upon recombinant proheparanase treatment. This suggested that HS moieties were critical for proheparanase-mediated AMPAR internalization. Recombinant proheparanase treatment of the neuronal cultures also led to decreases in glutamate-induced calcium influx, in terms of both the number of responsive cells and the change in intracellular calcium level, consistent with proheparanase-mediated neuronal internalization of AMPARs. Taken together, these results support our hypothesis and highlight dependence on the HS moiety for proheparanase-mediated neuronal internalization of AMPARs. We further investigated if proheparanase action at synapses can be found in other brain regions. The finding of neuronal heparanase expression in vestibular nucleus (VN) microexplant culture led us to study the role of proheparanase in synaptic plasticity in the VN. PKC activation enhanced heparanase expression in VN microexplant cultures. Recombinant proheparanase also triggered the uptake of HS and led to decreases in glutamate-induced calcium influxin VN microexplant cultures. These results support that proheparanase plays a role in synaptic plasticity in the VN but the effect and…

▼ Associative mechanisms allow organisms to learn which stimuli in the environment predict danger. Such learning allows the brain’s sensory systems to increase their sensitivity to ecologically-critical stimuli or optimize discrimination between threat-predictive and neutral stimuli. Here, we used discriminative aversive conditioning in human subjects to explore these interactions between sensory processing and learning. Prior to conditioning we used a triangle task to assess each subject’s ability to discriminate between a pair of very similar odorants and categorized them as baseline discriminators or non-discriminators. Each subject then underwent discriminative conditioning consisted of 8 trials of one of the odorants (the CS+) paired with a co-terminating mild wrist-shock and 8 trials of the other odorant (the CS-) presented alone. Odorants were counterbalanced across subjects and trials were presented in random order. Odorant-evoked skin conductance responses (SCR) were recorded throughout conditioning. Subjects very quickly (within the first few trials) developed a preferential enhancement of the SCR evoked by the CS+ odorant, including the group of non-discriminators that performed poorly on the baseline olfactory assessment. Post-conditioning perceptual testing on a subset of these subjects revealed that these non-discriminators exhibited an impressive improvement in their ability to discriminate the two odorants compared to their own pre-conditioning baselines. Control groups receiving odors without shocks or shocks without odors showed no differential SCR and no improvements in perceptual discrimination. Interestingly, a subset of participants with relatively high levels of trait anxiety (assessed via the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) exhibited much less difference in the SCR to the CS+ and CS- after conditioning compared to participants with normal levels of trait anxiety, which is consistent with previous reports. The results of this study highlight the capacity of the olfactory system for rapid plasticity in response to fear learning.

Background: Long-term training of specific motor tasks is associated with automatic execution of movements. Functional adaptation induced by training results in performance improvement. It is not yet fully understood whether functional adaptation is reflected by plasticity changes in brain structure. Objectives: We aimed to investigate the presence and degree of structural brain plasticity induced by long-term bimanual motor activity executed by professional typists. Subjects/Methods: We studied 17 right-handed professional typists. Using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), we correlated duration of practice and gray matter volume. Local regions of interest (ROI) -VBM was applied using predefined 116 previously segmented brain sites (from the anatomical automatic labeling library) and MARSBAR package. Results: We found a significant positive regression between GMV and duration of practice in six regions: left medial inferior cerebellar hemisphere, right medial inferior cerebellar hemisphere, right medial orbital region, right paracentral lobule and the right temporal pole. Discussion: Our study suggests that long-term typewriting practice may yield macroscopic changes in brain structures of healthy adults. Non-mirror sequential bimanual finger activity coordination creates a demand in cortical regions related to the programming of motor task, including the supplementary motor area, prefrontal cortices and cerebellum. Conclusion: Neural plasticity occurs in adult brain. Long-term bimanual training may increase GMV in specific brain areas of cerebral cortex and cerebellum. These regions are related to bimanual motor coordination and planning, which are important for typing

Introdução: O treinamento prolongado de tarefas motoras está associado com a execução automática dos movimentos. A adaptação funcional induzida pelo treinando resulta em uma melhora do desempenho motor. Não se compreende ainda inteiramente se essa adaptação funcional é refletida em mudanças plásticas na estrutura do cérebro. Objetivo: Investigar a presença e o grau de plasticidade cerebral estrutural do cérebro induzida por um treino motor bimanual prolongado em digitadores experientes profissionais. Sujeitos/Métodos: Foram avaliados 17 digitadores profissionais. Através da técnica de Mofometria Baseada em Voxels (VBM), que utiliza imagens de ressonância magnética de alta resolução, correlacionamos o tempo de prática como digitador com o volume de substancia cinzenta cerebral (VSC). Utilizamos as regiões de interesse (ROI) disponibilizadas pela AAL (anatomical automatic labeling) library e o programa MARSBAR para o SPM2. Resultados: Encontramos uma regressão positiva significativa entre VSC e tempo de prática em seis regiões cerebrais: hemisfério cerebelar inferior medial esquerdo, hemisfério cerebelar inferior medial direito, região frontal orbital medial direita, lóbulo paracentral direito e o pólo temporal direito. Discussão: Nosso estudo sugere que a prática prolongada de digitação pode produzir mudanças macroscópicas estruturais no cérebro de…

▼ The qualitative case study explored teaching and learning in a moving classroom, a unique learning environment. "Moving classroom" is a term coined by the researcher and refers to a classroom where instructors and students have the opportunity to move for the duration of class. For this study, the mode of movement was stationary bicycles. The purpose of this study was to identify how the moving classroom informs the teaching practices of instructors and the learning experiences of students in undergraduate kinesiology courses in South Texas. The rationale for this inquiry is that physical education requirements have decreased (Flegal, Carroll, Ogden, & Curtin, 2010), and prolonged sitting for students in both K-12 schools and collegiate settings has increased (Desai, Miller, Staples, & Bravender, 2008; Ferrara, 2009) despite findings which link physical activity to improved learning (Sattelmair & Ratey, 2009). This study was guided using an interpretivism framework which aims to make meaning and understand lived-experiences (Crotty, 2004; Merriam, 2009). This study was further informed through work in brain neuroplasticity which examines how an induced change in the nervous system influences change in function and behavior (Shaw & McEachern, 2001). The bounded case of the moving classroom included two instructors and 76 students across three semesters. Findings indicated that the moving classroom was favorable for college students who balance multiple demands. Student participants valued the autonomy to choose how to integrate into the learning environment. Findings also indicated that students had body awareness including posture and movement, and the influence of posture and movement on cognitive attributes. Participants also experienced increased caloric expenditure in a variety of ways. The findings indicated that the purpose of movement must be clear as to not be confused with that of an exercise class. Specific challenges identified were distractions from the physical space, class schedules, instructor workload, and instructor experience. The implications of this study raise questions about how movement and activity can be integrated into a classroom, and what the role of physical activity is within the learning environment. This study raises further questions about the role of physical activity and movement in cognitive functioning within learning environments. Additionally, this study informs how health may be impacted from less sitting time in educational settings. Advisors/Committee Members: Randy Bonnette (advisor), Martin Ward (advisor).

▼ INTRODUCTION: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterized by ongoing feelings of guilt, sadness, and memory and cognition impairment. It is a multidimensional illness that affects many functionally integrated pathways of the brain. Understanding the underlying brain dysfunction that gives rise to this complex illness has been challenging, and by extension the search for appropriate treatments. MDD patients who are considered treatment resistant make up the primary population that receives electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Remarkably, ECT shows a 75% remission rate in this patient population and is considered the “gold standard” treatment for major depression. Although the exact mechanism of its function is unknown, it is well accepted that the induced grand-mal seizure confers its therapeutic effect. The seizure likely has broad effect that somehow corrects the underlying dysfunction in brain circuitry. Here, we specifically examined studies of functional connectivity and metabolite changes. METHODS: Through literature search, we examined six studies in functional connectivity and four studies in magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). RESULTS: Functional Connectivity: Studies have found that after bilateral ECT treatments, patients with major depression showed reduction of functional connectivity (FC) from the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to other cortical and limbic structures. Correlated activity between the superior frontal gyri, middle frontal gyri and angular gyri were significantly increased after ECT. Hyperdeactivation of the orbitofrontal cortex to negative emotional stimuli in patients was decreased, and it was associated with improvement in depressive symptoms. Regional activity in the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC) and functional connectivity between the sgACC and left hippocampus in treatment naïve patients after ECT were increased and correlated to reduction of depressive symptoms. Reduced connectivity between the amygdale and sgACC and increased connectivity between the amygdale and DLPFC was found by sequential assessments over a course of ECT treatments. Lastly, ECT increased the functional connectivity between DLPFC and the default mode network. MRS: Studies found decreased levels of glutamate or glx (glutamate/glutamine/ GABA) in patients in the anterior cingulate cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) compared to healthy controls. Additionally, it was found that glx levels increased after ECT treatments and that this increase was only in those who responded to treatment. Lastly, GABA level increased after ECT treatment in the occipital cortex. Discussion: Results from functional connectivity and brain metabolite studies in patients with major depression point to induced neuroplasticity as part of ECT’s therapeutic mechanism. Remodeling connectivity and mediating metabolite changes both will require modifications at the synaptic level. The wide spread changes seen in several different brain regions that have been implicated in depression further…

▼ It is well established that focusing on the external effect of one’s movement (an external focus of attention) results in enhanced motor learning and produces superior motor performance compared to focusing inward on the body’s own physical execution of the motor movement (an internal focus). While the benefits of an external focus in motor learning, and the detriments of an inward or ‘internal’ focus have been highly replicated, there is still little mechanistic understanding pertaining to the brain-related changes that may result from these two different foci of attention during motor training. Since the brain is highly malleable and has been shown to adapt in response to motor training (i.e., neuroplasticity), it is postulated that attentional focus may change the brain’s structure and function. However, no direct examination exploring the influence of attentional focus on neuroplasticity (structural or functional) exists. The primary objective of this study was to determine the effects of balance training with different attentional foci on brain-related neuroplasticity in a young healthy population. Participants (n = 33) were randomly assigned to a control, internal focus, or external focus condition. Functional and structural brain connectivity analyses was conducted using neuroimaging data collected through functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) prior to (baseline) and following a seven-day balance training intervention (retention). Between baseline and retention data collection, participants in the internal and external focus training groups practiced a dynamic balance task for one hour per day, each day for seven consecutive days (acquisition). For the internal focus trials, participants were asked to, ‘focus on keeping their feet level;’ whereas, for the external focus trials participants were asked to, ‘focus on keeping the board level.’ The control group did not complete any balance training, but completed baseline and retention balance measurements. An inertial measurement unit was attached to the center of the balance board to assess the performance and learning of the balance task. Resting-state brain connectivity analyses were performed on the fMRI data to contrast connectivity differences for each group at retention relative to baseline, and, for the diffusion data (DTI), fractional anisotropy analyses (a metric to quantify water diffusion within a voxel of white-matter) was performed to quantify the relationship between changes in balance and water diffusivity within white-matter tracts. Classical attentional focus effects were observed for acquisition, with those in the external focus condition producing significantly less mean and standard deviation velocity compared to the internal focus group (both p < .05). Likewise, at retention, those in the external focus group produced significantly less mean and standard deviation velocity compared to the control group (both p < .05). We also observed a significant within-day effect in which both training groups… Advisors/Committee Members: Randy Schmitz (advisor).

This study addressed the General Hypothesis that orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is associated with neuroplasticity of the rat’s primary face motor cortex (face-M1) and somatosensory cortex (face-S1) motor representations and with mechanical and thermal hypersensitivities in the orofacial region. Objective 1 was to develop an OTM rat model, and design and manufacture a cephalostat for standardized radiographic measurements of the amount and the rate of OTM. A constant force of 10 ± 4 cN applied for 28 days produced a uniform rate of OTM of the right three maxillary molars and maxillary incisors of 1.75 ± 0.23 mm. The well-defined force parameters correlated with clinical observations of OTM in humans. Objective 2 was to use intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) and electromyographic (EMG) recordings to test if neuroplastic changes occur in the ICMS-defined motor representations of anterior digastric (LAD, RAD), masseter (LMa, RMa), buccinator (LBu, RBu), and genioglossus (GG) muscles within the rat’s face-M1 and face-S1 during OTM; the analyses to include any alterations in the number of ICMS sites representing these muscles and in the onset latencies of ICMS-evoked responses in the muscles. OTM resulted in significant changes in LAD, RAD, and GG motor representations in face-M1 and face-S1 at days 1, 7, and 28; there were no significant difference in the onset latency for these muscles across the groups, and between face-M1 and face S1 within each group. Objective 3 was to test if orofacial mechanical and thermal hypersensitivities occur in rats during OTM. The mechanical and thermal sensitivities at ipsilateral and contralateral orofacial sites were significantly increased in the early postoperative period (1 – 5 days), with peaks reached on day 1, and then returned to preoperative levels until postoperative day 28. These findings suggest that the cortical neuroplastic changes are unlikely related to maintained OTM-induced pain, although pain may have contributed to the changes in the early postoperative period. Thus, this new OTM rat model was successfully used for neurophysiological and behavioural studies that revealed the relevance of cortical neuroplasticity to orthodontic therapy and concepts of orofacial growth and development.

▼ An important goal of neuroscience research is to discover molecular processes that enable persistent neuroplasticity in the adult and aging brain. In many species, some types of neuroplasticity typically decrease with age. Honey bees and other social hymenopterans, however, exhibit a reinstatement of structural plasticity in association with flight and foraging behavior. Adult plasticity in these species often includes growth and remodeling of processes in the mushroom bodies, a paired region of the insect brain involved in sensory integration, learning and memory. Honey bees (Apis mellifera) learn to navigate in the environment surrounding the hive by performing orientation flights for several days before they begin to forage; both orientation flights and foraging are cognitively challenging behaviors. Honey bee mushroom bodies show increases in neuropil volume coincident with the increased cognitive demands of orientation flights and foraging behavior, and treatment with pilocarpine, a muscarinic cholinergic receptor agonist, produces growth of the mushroom body neuropil comparable to that produced by maturation and foraging. I have examined molecular processes associated with flight and foraging experience in the mushroom bodies of honey bees to discover mechanisms that may support neuropil growth. Foraging experience regulates multiple molecular processes in the mushroom bodies, including some that may contribute directly to neuropil growth, and others that could potentially protect the brain from the effects of aging and physiological stress. My investigation of a specific behavior, the orientation flight, found that this experience triggers a rapid and transient upregulation of egr in the mushroom bodies. Egr is a homolog of egr-1, an immediate-early gene well known to respond to novel experience that also exhibits higher basal levels in brain regions undergoing development or remodeling in vertebrates. I found that egr expression was upregulated in bees prepared to perform orientation flights and in foragers relative to hive bees engaged in brood care, and established its plausibility as a link between muscarinic signaling and neuropil growth.

▼ Previous work has demonstrated that anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied to the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (rVLPFC) is capable of accelerating learning of a threat identification and classification task. However, questions remain as to the cognitive mechanisms underlying this effect, and whether the observed tDCS mediated learning is specific to threatening stimuli or, rather, a more generalizable learning processes. The goal of the current project was to isolate specific aspects of the threat detection task in order to exemplify previous findings. A number of pre-test measures were included to attempt to decipher the characteristics of subjects who are most likely to benefit from stimulation. A novel classification task was devised, during which subjects learned to classify pictures of European streets into two categories using two rules. Fifty-four subjects were randomly assigned to receive 30 minutes of anodal (n = 18), cathodal (n = 18), or sham (n = 18) tDCS. A linear mixed model revealed a significant interaction between condition and training block in performance increases after training (p = 0.002). Compared to a 4.2% increase in sham subjects, anodal tDCS increased categorization accuracy by 20.6% (d = 1.71) and cathodal tDCS by 14.4% (d = 1.16). A logistic regression was run to predict rule learning in the experimental task using pre-test measures as predictors, with the final model predicting rule learning group by 75.9 %. Overall, these results provide further evidence for the capacity of tDCS applied to rVLPFC to enhance learning, showing greater than quadrupling of performance in a difficult novel classification task. These data suggest a generalized learning enhancement, such that other learning tasks may also benefit from this tDCS protocol. Additionally, the results point to ways in which individual characteristics might influence subsequent tDCS-mediated learning. Advisors/Committee Members: Vincent P.

▼ Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are major constituents of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the brain. The sulfated glycoforms in perineuronal nets around key interneurons were particularly attributed with roles of stabilizing the hardwired circuit. The corollary suggests tuning the sulfation pattern of perineuronal chondroitins as a way to re-open plasticity of the circuit. To address this, this study aimed (1) to determine the changes of CS sulfation in rat brains (i) as the neural circuitry matures during postnatal development and (ii) as the mature vestibular circuitry rewires during vestibular compensation and (2) to determine effects of model CSs that differ in sulfation pattern on the development of cortical neurons in culture. After establishing protocols of glycan extraction from brain tissues and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based CS disaccharide separation, we found region-specific changes in the relative abundance of sulfated chondroitin moieties in the cerebral cortex and the brainstem during postnatal development. Examination of the functions of each CS moiety reported in the literature suggested that the changes likely bear functional significance. During the course of vestibular compensation following unilateral labyrinthectomy, real time PCR analysis of transcripts recovered from the vestibular nucleus revealed higher expression of chondro-sulfotransferases on the ipsilesional than the contralesional side at post-operation day 1; similar levels were observed on the two sides by day 3. Changes in the composition of CS moieties recovered from brainstem were reminiscent of those observed early in postnatal development. The growth of neurites on CS-A substratum was restricted but was not significantly affected on CS-C substratum. This indicates the different effects on neurite growth by chondroitins that differ in sulfation pattern. The results therefore support the hypothesis that the sulfation patterns of CS in the perineuronal environment are subject to activity-dependent modification so as to tune plasticity in a local circuits towards hardwiring for the specific sernsorimotor function.

▼ Learning is central to the exploration of intelligence. Psychology and machine learning provide high-level explanations of how rational agents learn. Neuroscience provides low-level descriptions of how the brain changes as a result of learning. This thesis attempts to bridge the gap between these two levels of description by solving problems using machine learning ideas, implemented in biologically plausible spiking neural networks with experimentally supported learning rules. We present three novel neural models that contribute to the understanding of how the brain might solve the three main problems posed by machine learning: supervised learning, in which the rational agent has a fine-grained feedback signal, reinforcement learning, in which the agent gets sparse feedback, and unsupervised learning, in which the agents has no explicit environmental feedback. In supervised learning, we argue that previous models of supervised learning in spiking neural networks solve a problem that is less general than the supervised learning problem posed by machine learning. We use an existing learning rule to solve the general supervised learning problem with a spiking neural network. We show that the learning rule can be mapped onto the well-known backpropagation rule used in artificial neural networks. In reinforcement learning, we augment an existing model of the basal ganglia to implement a simple actor-critic model that has a direct mapping to brain areas. The model is used to recreate behavioural and neural results from an experimental study of rats performing a simple reinforcement learning task. In unsupervised learning, we show that the BCM rule, a common learning rule used in unsupervised learning with rate-based neurons, can be adapted to a spiking neural network. We recreate the effects of STDP, a learning rule with strict time dependencies, using BCM, which does not explicitly remember the times of previous spikes. The simulations suggest that BCM is a more general rule than STDP. Finally, we propose a novel learning rule that can be used in all three of these simulations. The existence of such a rule suggests that the three types of learning examined separately in machine learning may not be implemented with separate processes in the brain.

▼ Purpose: The human brain changes signi cantly with age. The plasticity of the visual cortex is thought to decrease into adulthood while childrens' brains are highly plastic. This change in plasticity is thought to be due, in part, to an inhibitory neurotransmitter known as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Recent research has established a general increase in GABA levels from childhood into adulthood, thought to be associated, in part, with the decrease in plasticity. It is unclear, however, whether GABA levels a ect the changes in plasticity that occur from young adulthood into older age. In older age, a further decrease in GABA levels has been suggested. The purpose of this thesis is threefold: (1) To implement a strategy for inducing long-term potentiation (LTP), (2) to understand the associations between psychophysical and physiological measures of neuroplasticity within the primary visual cortex, (3) to assess the e ect of age on both measures We hypothesize that as plasticity continues to decline into older age, GABA levels will continue to increase. Methods: Binocular rivalry alternation rates (ARs) were used as a behavioural measure of cortical GABA levels. A dichoptic presentation using red/green glasses was displayed on an Asus 3D Vision Ready monitor. Young (18-40 years) and older (60-80 years) participants wearing red/green glasses indicated whether they perceived the red grating, green grating, or a mix of the two{referred to as piecemeal{using 3 keys. Visually-evoked potentials (VEPs) were then used as a measure of the change in plasticity following a rapid onset/o set checkerboard stimulus thought to induce LTP within the primary visual cortex. VEPs before and after the inducing stimulus were recorded and compared. Results: ARs were signi cantly slower in older adults compared to the young adults. Pre to post waveform amplitudes had relatively lower LTP in the young adults compared to the older adults; however neither group showed signi cant LTP (p>0.05 for main e ect of pre versus post VEP amplitude). Conclusions: No correlation between AR and LTP was observed. AR was slower in older adults than in young adults. LTP was relatively greater in older adults compared with the young adult group. A decrease in GABA levels with older age, as most studies have found, alludes to an increase in ARs; however this was not the case in the present results. In contrast, while slower ARs suggests an increase in GABA levels, LTP was relatively greater in older adults suggesting a decrease in GABA levels. These data indicate that either AR or LTP, or both AR and LTP, are inadequate measures of GABA concentration or inaccurate measures of plasticity, or that GABA and LTP may not be directly related in the tested sample. Changes in neurotransmitter concentrations with age may lead to neural adaptations that alter the response to both rivalry and LTP in unexpected ways.
