介绍
这个项目的动机是为了理解大脑的状态,我们需要研究爬行动物大脑皮层中的状态。
我们利用Pogona Vitticeps中简单和高度结构化的组织,以暴露自然行为动物的大脑状态的全部功能。进一步利用爬行动物的独特进化位置,以揭示在进化中推动大脑状态出现的力量。通过对不同蜥蜴和哺乳动物的大脑状态特性的比较分析,我们可以提取出大脑状态的基本特性和功能。

About the Project
This project is motivated by the notion that to understand brain states we need to: Studying brain states in the cerebral cortex of reptiles.We utilize the simpler and highly structured state organization in Pogona Vitticeps, to expose the full repertoire of brain states in a naturally behaving animal. We take advantage of the limited diversity of motor movements in Pogona, to expose the link between population patterns and defined behaviors. We furthermore exploit the unique evolutionary positions of reptiles as closest to stem amniotes, in which the layered cortex and hippocampus first emerged, to reveal the forces that pushed the emergence of brain states in evolution. Finally, through a comparative analysis of brain state properties between different lizards and mammals we can extract the fundamental properties and functions of brain states and the network that supports them.
