Can anyone give me the specifics on Joe Martinez's research on the effect of acetylcholine on memory tasks?

Question

I have a project and can't seem to find the answer. He apparently did a study studying the effect of acetylcholine on memory tasks in rats. He used scopalomine to block of the acetylcholine receptor sites, which led to decreased memory. This is the information I was given, but I do not know the date/location of the research, the specifics, his hypothesis, the outcomes, or his methodology. If anyone could give me information or even a web site, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

I did a little research but had trouble finding Martinez' specific study on this topic, despite finding a bunch of other papers that referenced some other studies he has done.

I did, however, find his web page (and e-mail):
http://bio.utsa.edu/faculty/jmartinez.html

It might sound a little silly, but if you're hard-up for info, you could actually contact him via e-mail or call the university, just to ask if there is a web page or an article describing his study that he could send to you. He's probably too busy to spend time in personal correspondence, but he should have a copy of his study handy.

good luck!
