In patients with mutations in PINK1 and Parkin the protective effects of these enzymes is lost and brain cells controlling movement are damaged, resulting in Parkinson’s. This image shows the differ
This drawing was originally the 2009 collaboration of the late Jaak Panksepp, Ph.D., the father of affective neuroscience, and Sandra Paulsen, Ph.D. It illustrates his seminal view of the three levels of affective processing in the brain. This 2023 revision reflects not only the integration of affect at the PAG, but of the somato-sensory integration at the superior colliculus.

Bilateral sensory stimulation, which is used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder in humans, alleviates fear memory in mice through a circuit involving the superior colliculus and the medial thalamus.
Sensory information processing is an important feature of robotic agents that must interact with humans or environment. In many agent-based applications, visual and audio sensors are used to emulate human-like communication. The Superior Colliculus (SC), located in the mid-brain of nervous system, carries out similar functionality of audio and visual stimuli integration in both humans and animals. In recent years integration of sensory information using biological inspiration has been a focus area for neuroscience and artificial intelligence researchers. Hence, target lies in generating a single output state (i.e. a multimodal output) that can localize the source of the audio and visual stimuli. This book addresses the problem and attempts to find an effective solution by investigating computational and biological mechanisms involved in the generation of multimodal output. The research intends to develop a SC inspired computational architecture using artificial neural networks. Finally, the research has successfully generated multimodal output that can effectively localise stimuli source in a given environment. Also this research address enhancement and depression phenomena.

The neurobiological origin of attention-deficit disorder (ADD), a syndrome whose causes are poorly understood, has just been confirmed by a study carried out on mice. Researchers have identified a cerebral structure, the superior colliculus, where hyperstimulation causes behavior modifications similar to those of some patients who suffer from ADD. Their work also shows noradrenaline accumulation in the affected area, shedding light on this chemical mediator having a role in attention disorders.
