Abstract
Fokus neuroznanosti je proučavanje živčanog sustava na različitim razinama, od gena do proteina, stanica, sinapsi te obrazaca ponašanja. S druge strane, glavni fokus neuroetologije je proučavanje neuronskih mehanizama koji uvjetuju ponašanje životinja. Pristranosti pri odabiru vrsta, spolova i eksperimentalnih uvjeta otežavaju napredak u neuroznanstvenim istraživanjima. Većina istraživanja je rađena na glodavcima te uključuje samo jedinke muškog spola ili ne promatra spol kao eksperimentalnu varijablu koja ima utjecaj na rezultate. Preferiranje visoko kontroliranih laboratorijskih uvjeta, u kojima su životinje u ograničenom fizičkom kontaktu, onemogućuje bilježenje složenog socijalnog ponašanja. Problem su i razlike laboratorijskih i terenskih eksperimenata koje se mogu ukloniti izvođenjem eksperimenata u poluprirodnim uvjetima. Gušteri su važni modelni organizmi u neuroznanstvenim i neuroetološkim istraživanjima, posebice kod proučavanja središnjih generatora uzoraka te antipredatorskog i anksioznog ponašanja. Središnji generatori uzoraka su neuronski krugovi odgovorni za provedbu i kontrolu ritmičkih pokreta u odsutnosti vanjskih podražaja. Njihova uloga u oporavku ozljeda leđne moždine na modelu gušterica predmet je mnogih istraživanja.
Abstract (english)
The focus of neuroscience is the study of the nervous systems at various levels, from genes to proteins, cells, synapses and behavioral patterns. Neuroethology is, on the other hand, focused on the neural mechanisms that determine animal behavior. Species, sex and environmental biases make progress in neuroscientific research difficult. Most studies are done on rodents and involve only male subjects or don't consider sex as an experimental variable that has an impact on research data. Bias towards highly controlled laboratory conditions, in which animals are in limited physical contact, makes it impossible to examine complex social behaviors. Differences between laboratory and field experiments are also a problem that can be solved by conducting experiments in semi-natural conditions. Lizards are important model organisms in neuroscientific and neuroethological research, especially for studying central pattern generators, antipredatory and anxious behavior. Central pattern generators are neural circuits responsible for the implementation and control of rhythmic movements in the absence of sensory inputs. Their role in the recovery of spinal cord injuries on a lizard model is the subject of many studies.
