mPer1 and mPer2 mutant mice show regular spatial and contextual learning in standardized tests for hippocampus-dependent learning

Zueger, M. ; Urani, A. ; Chourbaji, S. ; Zacher, C. ; Lipp, H. P. ; Albrecht, Urs ; Spanagel, R. ; Wolfer, D. P. ; Gass, P.

In: Journal of Neural Transmission, 2006, vol. 113, no. 3, p. 347-356

Learning and memory, like most physiological processes, seem to be under the control of circadian rhythm. The recently cloned mPer1 and mPer2 genes play an important role in the regulation of the circadian rhythm. In this study, we tested mPer1 and mPer2 mutant mice in two different learning and memory paradigms, a water-maze place navigation task and contextual...

Nutritional value–Dependent and nutritional value–Independent effects on Drosophila melanogaster larval behavior

Rohwedder, Astrid ; Pfitzenmaier, Johanna E. ; Ramsperger, Noel ; Apostolopoulou, Anthi A. ; Widmann, Annekathrin ; Thum, Andreas S.

In: Chemical Senses, 2012, vol. 37, no. 8, p. 711-721

Gustatory stimuli allow an organism not only to orient in its environment toward energy-rich food sources to maintain nutrition but also to avoid unpleasant or even poisonous substrates. For both mammals and insects, sugars—perceived as “sweet”—potentially predict nutritional benefit. Interestingly, even Drosophila adult flies are attracted to most high-potency sweeteners preferred by...

Influence of plasticity and learning on evolution under directional selection

Paenke, Ingo ; Sendhoff, Bernhard ; Kawecki, Tadeusz J.

In: American Naturalist, 2007, vol. 170, no. 2, p. E47-E58

Phenotypic plasticity and related processes (learning, developmental noise) have been proposed to both accelerate and slow down genetically based evolutionary change. While both views have been supported by various mathematical models and simulations, no general predictions have been offered as to when these alternative outcomes should occur. Here we propose a general framework to study the...

La démarche de soins infirmière à la Haute Ecole de Santé (Genève) : facteurs facilitant un apprentissage : travail de Bachelor

Monod, Lara ; Burckhardt, Tobias ; Rodriguez da Rocha, Gora (Dir.)

Mémoire de bachelor : Haute école de santé Genève, 2013.

La démarche de soins infirmière (DSI) est sujette à controverses tant dans la pratique que dans l'enseignement. Il s'agit d'un outil de résolution de problèmes appliqué au domaine des soins infirmiers. La DSI comporte également des éléments clés permettant de promouvoir la profession infirmière comme une discipline scientifique à part entière. Ce travail est constitué d'une revue...
