Experimental Methods for Investigation of Shape Memory Based Elastocaloric Cooling Processes and Model Validation

11.6K
Experimental methods for investigation of solid state cooling processes and characterization of elastocaloric material properties of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) are presented. A custom-built test rig has been designed for controlling and comprehensive monitoring of elastocaloric cooling processes. Furthermore, it provides a validation platform for thermomechanically coupled modeling approaches.

Aversive Associative Learning and Memory Formation by Pairing Two Chemicals in Caenorhabditis elegans

2.9K
We have previously developed protocols for Caenorhabditis elegans to form short- and long-term associative memories by massed and spaced training, respectively. Here, detailed protocols are described for the conditioning of C. elegans by pairing 1-propanol and hydrochloric acid as conditioned and unconditioned stimuli, respectively, to form aversive associative...

An Introduction to Learning and Memory

75.4K
Learning is the process of acquiring new information and memory is the retention or storage of that information. Different types of learning, such as non-associative and associative learning, and different types of memory, such as long-term and short-term memory, have been associated with human behaviors. Studying these components in detail helps behavioral scientists understand the neural mechanisms behind these two complex phenomena.

System of Memory01:23

System of Memory

7.2K
Memory is categorized into three major systems: sensory memory, short-term memory (STM), and long-term memory (LTM). These systems differ in their capacity and the duration for which they can hold information. Sensory memory captures raw sensory input from the environment, holding it for just a few seconds or less. For example, on hearing a brief, loud sound, like a car horn honking, the sound seems to linger in the mind for a moment even after it stops. This is an instance of sensory memory...

Working Memory01:24

Working Memory

815
Working memory refers to a combination of components, including short-term memory and attention, that allow an individual to hold information temporarily as we perform cognitive tasks. It is an essential cognitive function that enables the execution of complex tasks such as problem-solving, comprehension, and reasoning. Unlike short-term memory, which simply involves the storage of information for a brief period, working memory involves the active manipulation and processing of this...

Summary

The perirhinal cortex (PRC) is crucial for episodic memory, encoding object features and their associations. It acts as a hub, integrating information for object meaning retrieval and memory formation.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Science
  • Memory Research

Background:

  • The perirhinal cortex (PRC) is recognized as a key region for memory formation and retrieval.
  • It connects to the hippocampus and other neocortical areas, suggesting a role in information processing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the role of the perirhinal cortex (PRC) in encoding and retrieving object-related information.
  • To investigate the neural mechanisms underlying associative memory within the PRC.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing evidence on PRC neuron function.
  • Analysis of studies demonstrating behavioral readout of PRC-encoded information in non-human primates.

Main Results:

  • PRC neurons encode both object features and their associative relationships.

  • Evidence suggests PRC facilitates retrieval of cue-associated information through neural signaling.
  • Conclusions:

    • The PRC converts visual object information into associated features, initiating retrieval of complex object meanings.
    • The PRC functions as a central hub in a distributed memory network, integrating diverse knowledge about objects.
