Impaired Latent Inhibition in GDNF-Deficient Mice Exposed to Chronic Stress.

abstract：:To study visual learning in honey bees, we developed a virtual reality (VR) system in which the movements of a tethered bee walking stationary on a spherical treadmill update the visual panorama presented in front of it (closed-loop conditions), thus creating an experience of immersion within a virtual environment. In...
