Our recent publications have focused primarily on the electrophysiological and morphological properties of neurons in the hippocampus and in the prefrontal cortex of young and aged rhesus monkeys. In addition, we have published papers on the effects of prenatal malnutrition on the properties of hippocampal neurons in the rat. Some of these publications are listed below.
