Electroencephalography

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to measure object recognition testing on sleep/wake rats that measures in a streptozotocin-induced rat model of Sporadic Alzheimer’s disease. I will be focusing on object recognition testing in mice where they have the ability to perceive certain objects by its physical features such as color, shape, size, texture to determine how your short-term memory works when one or two different objects are placed for a certain period of time.

provided, and so a detailed image can be produced, also, spatial resolution is high and so where the neural activity is occurring can be localised. Another cognitive neurocognitive technique that has influenced our understanding of the mind is an electroencephalography (EEG). This is where electrodes are placed are a participants scalp and electrical activity is measured over time. A participant’s response to stimuli can be measured through the scalp electrodes recording their event-related…
