Abstract:
The neurophysiological study has been widely used in search of the relationship between brain and behavior. The basic techniques for the animal experiments of this kind such as stereotaxic techniques, lesioning methods the methods the methods of electrical stimulation and recording and confirmation of histological location were briefly reviewed. Nevertheless the importance of complementary neurochemical, neuroanatomical and behavioral studies can not be neglected.
