• Bootstrap testing for cross-correlation under low firing activity 

      González Montoro, Aldana María; Cao, Ricardo; Espinosa, Nelson; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (Springer, 2015-04-14)
      [Abstract] A new cross-correlation synchrony index for neural activity is proposed. The index is based on the integration of the kernel estimation of the cross-correlation function. It is used to test for the dynamic ...

      Espinosa, Nelson; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo; Labra, Carmen de; Cudeiro, Javier (PLoS ONE, 2011-02-10)
      [Abstract] The transient visual response of feline dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) cells was studied under control conditions and during the application of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation at 1 Hz ...
    • Spectroscopic measurement of cortical nitric oxide release induced by ascending activation 

      Espinosa, J.; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (Elsevier, 2014-11-25)
      [Abstract] The transition from sleep to the awake state is regulated by the activation of subcortical nuclei of the brainstem (BS) and basal forebrain (BF), releasing acetylcholine and glutamate throughout the cortex and ...
