Javaid, Muhammad Asim; Schellekens, Harriët; Cryan, John F.; Toulouse, André – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Despite the development of novel teaching strategies and the abundance of adjunct teaching web resources, students and early career physicians have continuously reported difficulties in learning and clinically applying neuroanatomy. Differences in instructional design of these resources, the lack of assessment of their capacity to meet intended…

Fernando Llanos; Jacie R. McHaney; William L. Schuerman; Han G. Yi; Matthew K. Leonard; Bharath Chandrasekaran – npj Science of Learning, 2020
Adults struggle to learn non-native speech contrasts even after years of exposure. While laboratory-based training approaches yield learning, the optimal training conditions for maximizing speech learning in adulthood are currently unknown. Vagus nerve stimulation has been shown to prime adult sensory-perceptual systems towards plasticity in…

Morton, Hannah E.; Gillis, Jennifer M.; Zale, Emily L.; Brimhall, Kim C.; Romanczyk, Raymond G. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Bullying victimization is a prevalent concern for neurodivergent (e.g., autistic, ADHD) youth. Bullying assessment methods vary widely and there is currently no questionnaire specific to neurodivergent youth. The "Assessment of Bullying Experiences" ("ABE") was created to fill this gap. The "ABE" questionnaire was…

Taylor, Emily C.; Livingston, Lucy A.; Callan, Mitchell J.; Ashwin, Chris; Shah, Punit – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with atypical autonomic nervous system (ANS) function. However, little is known about this relationship, while accounting for co-occurring mental health conditions (e.g. anxiety) that are also associated with ANS dysfunction. In addition, research on the ANS has typically involved physiological…

Sharron Bates – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The problem addressed by this study was the commonly held belief that lack of confidence, preparedness, educational neuromyths, and little or no professional development are factors that impede early childhood teachers' implementation of brain-based learning strategies in the daily curriculum design structure. This qualitative narrative inquiry…

Kip; Topping, Daniel B.; Wainman, Bruce; Wineski, Lawrence E.; Zumwalt, Ann C.; Hankin, Mark H. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Clerkships are defining experiences for medical students in which students integrate basic science knowledge with clinical information as they gain experience in diagnosing and treating patients in a variety of clinical settings. Among the basic sciences, there is broad agreement that anatomy is foundational for medical practice. Unfortunately,…

Kouchou, Ihsane; Kaddari, Fatiha; Bennis, Nezha; Elachqar, Abdelrhani; Marjane, Driss – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2019
Neurotransmission represents a key concept in the history of biology. The objective of this study is to elicit Moroccan university students? conceptions of neurotransmission and highlight potential difficulties and obstacles that may hinder its effective learning. A questionnaire was administered to 120 science students as a pre-test. After the…

Wong, Edwin W.; Glasgow, Stephen D.; Trigiani, Lianne J.; Chitsaz, Daryan; Rymar, Vladimir; Sadikot, Abbas; Ruthazer, Edward S.; Hamel, Edith; Kennedy, Timothy E. – Learning & Memory, 2019
Netrin-1 was initially characterized as an axon guidance molecule that is essential for normal embryonic neural development; however, many types of neurons continue to express netrin-1 in the postnatal and adult mammalian brain. Netrin-1 and the netrin receptor DCC are both enriched at synapses. In the adult hippocampus, activity-dependent…

Weisz, Harris A.; Wainwright, Marcy L.; Mozzachiodi, Riccardo – Learning & Memory, 2017
When presented with noxious stimuli, "Aplysia" exhibits concurrent sensitization of defensive responses, such as the tail-induced siphon withdrawal reflex (TSWR) and suppression of feeding. At the cellular level, sensitization of the TSWR is accompanied by an increase in the excitability of the tail sensory neurons (TSNs) that elicit the…

Paddock, Brie; Davenport, Caty – HAPS Educator, 2017
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by amyloid plaques, synapse dysfunction, and memory loss. The production and accumulation of A[beta] peptides, a major component of the amyloid plaques, is sensitive to many genetic and environmental factors. Recently, research has focused on the role of oxidative stress…

Rao Bhagavathula, Venugopala; Bhagavathula, Viswakanth; Moinis, Rohan S.; Chaudhuri, Joydeep Dutta – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
The study of neuroanatomy imposes a significant cognitive load on students since it includes huge factual information and therefore demands diverse learning strategies. In addition, a significant amount of teaching is carried out through human brain demonstrations, due to limited opportunities for cadaveric dissection. However, reports suggest…

Lind-Combs, Holly C.; Holt, Rachael Frush – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Children who are deaf or hard of hearing (D/HH) are at increased risk for neurocognitive delays, which can have cascading effects on development. Associations between neurocognition and the content of parental language--specifically the use of mental state vocabulary--have been observed in typically hearing (TH) children. This study…

Xin Sun – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Early childhood language experiences influence how a child's mind and brain process language and acquire literacy. For children growing up bilingual, their two languages interact in their minds, and these cross-linguistic influences can lead to unique neurocognitive mechanisms for language and reading compared to monolinguals. In this…

Gerwin, Katelyn L.; Brosseau-Lapré, Françoise; Weber, Christine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: A growing body of research suggests that a deficit in speech perception abilities contributes to the development of speech sound disorder (SSD). However, little work has been done to characterize the neurophysiological processes indexing speech perception deficits in this population. The primary aim of this study was to compare the neural…

Methods of assessment in anatomy vary across medical schools in the United Kingdom (UK) and beyond; common methods include written, spotter, and oral assessment. However, there is limited research evaluating these methods in regards to student performance and perception. The National Undergraduate Neuroanatomy Competition (NUNC) is held annually…
