Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)The link between respiration and emotions is well documented in humans, but animal studies addressing this issue are limited. The current project aims to systematically examine respiratory responses to stressors and stimuli of various intensity and length in rats, compare and correlate these responses with cardiac responses and behavioural indices of anxiety and lastly to investigate central neuronal pathways that mediate them. In the first chapter we show that respiratory responses to brief changes in arousal are more sensitive than traditionally used cardiac responses. Furthermore, respiration during the novelty stress is highly correlated with behavioural indices of anxiety in rats. The subs...
