Dopaminergic modulation of memory generalisation in depression. KU Leuven
The neural system that establish integrated episodic memory (i.e., memory about “what happened where and when”) comprises different forebrain and midbrain areas, including the neurochemically and functionally distinct VTA system that originates in the brainstem and provides the major dopaminergic input (i.e., releasing the neurotransmitter dopamine) to the forebrain. This proposal focusses on memory generalization (i.e., the ability to ...
