Stimuli to be associated frequently overlap, but it is also possible to associate stimuli discontinuously in time, as shown in trace conditioning for a discrete stimulus. This learning probably requires that the brain continues representing the stimulus after its presentation and involves the pre-limbic cortex (PL). Because the environment is also a powerful CS and inevitably associated, …
Dance training is well known to cause cognitive and biological changes in individuals. In addition, it is recognized that, during the performance, brain areas belonging to the Action Observation System are activated, including the mirror-neuron network. These systems are important for the individuals' empathic abilities. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that one's output in empathy t…

It has been proposed that the subiculum is a fundamental piece in the neural circuitry that involves hippocampal formation, besides presenting connections with areas such as prefrontal cortex and amygdala. These regions are extensively studied regarding to their involvement with aversive learning, which is studied through the paradigms of fear conditioning and inhibitory avoidance. We obs…

In contextual fear conditioning (CFC) the environmental context can signal the occurrence of an aversive stimulus (US). This association leads to fear conditioned responses (CR) when it is re-exposed to the context. It is thought that these conditioned memories are encoded by a strengthening of synaptic connections between neurons that are active at the time of CFC, forming neuronal ense…
Fear Conditioning is one of the most used paradigms in animal models studies to investigate the neurobiology of emotional memory and disorders like Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. The neural circuitry engaged in this model is well described and very similar to humans and rodents. In clinical treatment, the most common strategy to treat these disorders are based in fear extinction principle…
This project is about a research internship abroad step foreseen in the postdoctoral project nº 2012/13973-4 approved by Fapesp. In the postdoctoral project we will carry out batteries of musical perception (Montreal Battery of Evaluation of Amusia - MBEA) and vocal production (Musical Skills Battery - MSB) and those measures will be taken into account for the analysis of tonal short-term…
