SPATIAL WORKING MEMORY IN MALE RATS: PRE-EXPERIENCE AND TASK DEPENDENT ROLES OF DOPAMINE D1- AND D2-LIKE RECEPTORS

Spatial Working Memory in Male Rats: Pre-Experience and Task Dependent Roles of Dopamine D1- and D2-Like Receptors

The dopaminergic system is known to be involved in working memory processed by several brain regions like prefrontal cortex (PFC), hippocampus, striatum.In an earlier study we could show that Levodopa but not Modafinil enhanced working memory in a T-maze only during the early phase of training (day 3), whereas the later phase remained unaffected.Ra

Assessing the impact of early warning and evacuation on human losses during the 2021 Ahr Valley flood in Germany using agent-based modelling

Between 12 and 19 July 2021, a quasi-stationary atmospheric low-pressure system named Bernd caused intense precipitation on already-saturated soil, resulting in severe flooding in Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands.The Ahr Valley in Rhineland-Palatinate was particularly affected, with approximately 42 000 residents impacted, around 8800 building

Optimization of Emulsifier and Stabilizer Concentrations in a Model Peanut-Based Beverage System: A Mixture Design Approach

Colloidal stability as well as physicochemical and rheological properties are among the critical determinants of the sensory quality of beverages.The present study investigated the effects of lecithin, xanthan gum, propylene glycol alginate, and their combinations on the colloidal stability and physicochemical/rheological properties of a model pean
