Neuroscience 2002 Abstracts 321.9. Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Neurokinin I immunoreactive neurons are abundantly present in the medullary raphe of adult goats. We therefore wished […]

Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Excitotoxic lesions of the rhinal (perirhinal/entorhinal) cortices yield substantial deficits in visual recognition (Baxter and Murray, 2001; Malkova et al., 2001). To evaluate the mnemonic role
