Profile
This group is aimed at discussing recent findings about brain physiology and possible implications for the explanation of cognitive and conscious processing.
Our main topics include:
Molecular Mechanisms: systems of transmitters, modulators, membrane receptors, and their participation in cognitive functions;
Intracellular Signal-Transduction Pathways involved in cognitive functions;
Brain Processes Supporting Memory, Attention and Executive Functions;
Techniques for Measurement of Brain Activity and Imaging;
Neuro-Astroglial Interactions;
ERP, Oscillatory Synchrony and Other Correlates of Consciousness;
Neurological and Psychiatric Phenomena Impacting Consciousness: loss of consciousness in Epilepsia, alterations of consciousness in Schizophrenia and Depression- Admin contact:
