The enigma of olfactory learning.

Abstract:

:It has been suggested, on the basis of neuroanatomical and behavioural data, that olfactory discrimination in the rat provides privileged access to higher cognitive processes, involves the acquisition of a learning-set and, importantly, can be used to model human hippocampal function and dysfunction. In this article, Ian C. Reid and Richard G. M. Morris question the assumptions upon which these claims have been based and criticize the application of odour discrimination learning in the rat to the study of human memory.

  • Neural mechanisms for prediction: do insects have forward models?

    abstract::'Forward models' are increasingly recognized as a crucial explanatory concept in vertebrate motor control. The essential idea is that an important function implemented by nervous systems is prediction of the sensory consequences of action. This is often associated with higher cognitive capabilities; however, many of t...
