A Two-Phase Hippocampal Code Linking Time And Distance Estimation To Action, Raphael Heldman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A critical component of spatial navigation is the ability to estimate elapsed time or distance traveled. How the brain generates such estimates and links them to behavior remains unclear. In this thesis, we identify a previously unrecognized population coding strategy for time or distance in hippocampal CA1, a region critical for navigation and memory. Using novel behavioral paradigms in head-fixed mice combined with electrophysiological recordings, we show that this code is carried by two functionally distinct subpopulations of pyramidal neurons, termed PyrUp and PyrDown, whose firing rates evolve in opposite directions during navigation. Both populations exhibit a common two-phase dynamic: …

A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis Finds That Psychological Well-Being Predicts All-Cause Mortality Independently Of Psychological Ill-Being., Max Genecov, David Yeager

Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior Faculty Papers

BACKGROUND: Does psychological well-being (e.g. life satisfaction, happiness, meaning in life) predict the length of a person’s life, or are measures of well-being simply assessing the absence of ill-being (depression, loneliness, sadness) and are therefore redundant with ill-being measures? Individual studies have examined this question by measuring and controlling for both well-being and ill-being, but inconsistent findings have been reported. METHODS: A systematic review and random-effects meta-analysis was conducted on the literature of prospective longitudinal studies linking all-cause mortality to well-being. Studies that controlled for ill-being were compared to studies that did not control for ill-being to identify the unique …

Salon Music For Professionals: An Analysis And Performance Guide To Two Programmatic Suites For Flute And Piano By Theodor Blumer (1881–1964), Brenna Sherman

Dissertations and Doctoral Documents, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, 2023–

Theodor Blumer (1881–1964) was an early twentieth-century German composer, pianist, and conductor whose substantial contributions to the flute repertoire have received little scholarly attention. Despite his prolific output and close association with leading wind performers of his time, his music remains largely absent from contemporary scholarship and performance. This dissertation addresses that gap by presenting a comprehensive biographical timeline, defining Blumer’s compositional aesthetics, and completing an in-depth analytical examination of his programmatic works for the flute.

Drawing on primary source materials from Blumer’s estate—including personal correspondence, photographs, and dated manuscripts—this study constructs the first full biography of Blumer. Central to …

Hyperdynamic Microtubule-Based Structural Changes In Monocyte-Derived-Neuronal-Like Cells From Patients With Schizophrenia, Alfredo Bellon, Alonso Cortez-Resendiz, Lauren N Forrest, Omar Elmarasi, Janani Iyer, Anjali Iyer, Chachrit Khunsriraksakul, Dajiang Liu, L Elliot Hong, Therese M Jay, Marie-Odile Krebs, Anne Hosmalin

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

A consistent postmortem finding in schizophrenia (SCZ) is reduction in dendrites' size. However, neurons with larger dendritic trees have also been encountered. In vitro experiments with neurons and neuronal-like cells coming directly from patients with SCZ showed similar results, evidencing at times more extensions and at others less arborizations. The process of extending and retracting neuronal outgrowths depends on microtubules polymerization and depolymerization. The possibility that microtubule polymerization/depolymerization is related to defects in the neuronal structure comes from several microtubular anomalies reported in SCZ such as its abnormal distribution in the cytoplasm, irregular shape of microtubules and even absence of …
