Presentation Transcript


  1. Types of Learning • Associative Learning: • Classical Conditioning • Behavior is associated with paired stimuli • unconditioned stimulus (UCS) yields an unconditioned response (UCR) • a neutral stimulus (NS) is paired with the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) • until the UCS alone (now the CS) yields a conditioned response (CR) • Ivan Pavlov • Operant Conditioning • Behavior is associated with rewards • Reinforcement • Punishment • B. F. Skinner

  2. Classical Conditioning

  3. Operant Conditioning • Reinforcement • is any procedure that increases the response • Positive Reinforcement • adding or presenting a stimulus that increases the response • Negative Reinforcement • removing a stimulus that increases the response • Punishment • is any procedure that decreases the response

  4. Types of Memory (iconic memory) (7 bits for 30seconds)

  5. Types of Long-Term Memory Explicit Implicit learned skills conscious recall personally experienced events general facts motor or cognitive activation of associations associative learning

  6. Memory Processes Step 2 Step 1 Step 3 Retrieval

  7. Where is Memory Stored? • Brain Impairment lead us to clues about learning and memory • HM • Extreme seizures forced the removal of: • medial basal regions of the temporal lobe (bilaterally) • most of the amygdala (bilaterally) • all of the hippocampus (bilaterally) • Result: • Retrograde amnesia • loss of some past memories • Anterograde amnesia • loss of the ability to form new memories • Hippocampus is critical for the formation of new memories

  8. HM Implicit Memory Intact No Explicit Memory

  9. Hippocampus is Critical for Spatial Learning Rats must remember which doors have the reward

  10. Caudate Nucleus Critical forResponse Recognition Memory Must turn in same direction to get reward (remembers its own response)

  11. Visual Cortex is Critical for Sensory Perception Rat must choose object that doesn’t match sample

  12. Memory Areas Amygdala Caudate Hippocampus Visual Cortex

  13. Cellular Mechanism for Learning Hebbian Synapse: Frequent stimulation can change the efficacy of a synapse

  14. Enrichment Protocol Enriched Impoverished

  15. Quantifying Dendritic Arborization

  16. Neurobiological Changes via Learning • Dendritic changes: • Increased dendritic arborization • Increased dendritic bulbs • Synaptic changes: • More neurotransmitter release • More sensitive postsynaptic area • Larger presynaptic areas • Larger postsynaptic areas • Increased interneuron modulation • More synapses formed • Increased shifts in synaptic input • Physiological changes: • Long-Term Potentiation • Long-Term Depression

  17. Hippocampal Brain Slicing

  18. Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) each triangle represents a single action potential Slope of the EPSP (one characteristic measure of an action potential) baseline response potentiated response Hippocampus has a three synaptic pathway Stimulate one area (mossy fibers) and record the action potentials in another (CA1) Stimulate multiple times to get a baseline response Once a stable baseline is established give a brief high frequency stimulating pulse Use the same stimulating pulse as in baseline but now see a potentiated response This potentiated response can last hours, days, or even weeks (LTP)

  19. Normal Synaptic Transmission • Glutamate Channels: • NMDA • Mg2+ block • no ion flow • AMPA • Na+ flows in • depolarizes cell

  20. LTP Induction With repeated activation the depolarization drives the Mg2+ plug out of the NMDA channels Ca2+ then rushes in through the NMDA channels Ca2+ stimulates a retrograde messenger to maintain LTP Ca2+ also stimulates CREB to activate plasticity genes

  21. LTP-induced Neural Changes

  22. Learning Requires Protein Synthesis! Anisomycin: (protein synthesis inhibitor) blocks long term memory
