Summary
This paper investigates how moderate white light exposure can enhance spatial memory retrieval in mice by activating a central amygdala-involved circuit, and explores the underlying neurochemical mechanisms.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper investigates how light exposure can enhance spatial memory retrieval in mice, and explores the underlying neurochemical mechanisms.
Lighting Design Considerations: The study explores the effects of different intensities of white light exposure on spatial memory retrieval in mice, providing insights that could be relevant to lighting design considerations.
Mood regulation: The paper discusses how light exposure can affect mood and anxiety levels in mice, which can in turn affect cognitive functions such as memory retrieval.
