The Effect of Auditory Residual Inhibition on Tinnitus and the Electroencephalogram.

Objectives: Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the absence of an external physical sound source, for some people it can severely reduce the quality of life. Acoustic residual inhibition (ARI) is a suppression of tinnitus following the cessation of a sound. The present study investigated the effect of ARI on brain activity measured using EEG.

Human Sensory LTP Predicts Memory Performance and Is Modulated by the ValMet Polymorphism.

: Long-term potentiation (LTP) is recognised as a core neuronal process underlying long-term memory. However, a direct relationship between LTP and human memory performance is yet to be demonstrated. The first aim of the current study was thus to assess the relationship between LTP and human long-term memory performance.
