DESIGNING A MULTI-PARAMETER METHOD TO ASSESS THE ADAPTATION PERIOD OF CRUCIAN CARP UNDER STRESS CONDITIONS OF THE BIONIC ROBOT FISH

Designing a Multi-Parameter Method to Assess the Adaptation Period of Crucian Carp under Stress Conditions of the Bionic Robot Fish

Changes in the physiological and behavioral states of fish are affected by foreign substances.Therefore, fish need a certain adaptation period to eliminate the stress response.Herein, in order to determine the adaptation period, the bionic robot fish was used to obtain behavioral information about crucian carp, which was tested at five time points

Aversive event anticipation affects connectivity between the ventral striatum and the orbitofrontal cortex in an fMRI avoidance task.

Ability to anticipate aversive events is important for avoiding dangerous or unpleasant situations.The motivation to avoid an event is influenced by the incentive salience of an event-predicting cue.In an avoidance fMRI task Flap Discs we used tone intensities to manipulate salience in order to study the involvement of the orbitofrontal cortex in p
