Left Superior Temporal Gyrus Is Coupled to Attended Speech in a Cocktail-Party Auditory Scene
(The Journal of Neuroscience, 2016)
Using a continuous listening task, we evaluated the coupling between the listener’s cortical activity and the temporal envelopes of
different sounds in a multitalker auditory scene using magnetoencephalography and ...
The Anatomy of Non-conscious Recognition Memory
(Trends in Neusciences, 2016)
Cortical regions as early as primary
visual cortex have been implicated
in recognition memory. Here, we
outline the challenges that this
presents for neurobiological
accounts of recognition memory.
We conclude that ...
Metabolic efficiency with fast spiking in the squid axon
(Frontiers, 2012-11-15)
Fundamentally, action potentials in the squid axon are consequence of the entrance of sodium ions during the depolarization of the rising phase of the spike mediated by the outflow of potassium ions during the hyperpolarization ...
The Cryo-EM Structure of a Complete 30S Translation Initiation Complex from Escherichia coli
(Public Library of Science, 2011-07-05)
Formation of the 30S initiation complex (30S IC) is an important checkpoint in regulation of gene expression. The selection of mRNA, correct start codon, and the initiator fMet-tRNA(fMet) requires the presence of three ...
Early astrocytic atrophy in the entorhinal cortex of a triple transgenic animal model of Alzheimer's disease
(Portland Press, 2011)
The EC (entorhinal cortex) is fundamental for cognitive and mnesic functions. Thus damage to this area appears as a key element in the progression of AD (Alzheimer's disease), resulting in memory deficits arising from ...
Spinal circuits can accommodate interaction torques during multijoint limb movements
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-11-11)
The dynamic interaction of limb segments during movements that involve multiple joints creates torques in one joint due to motion about another. Evidence shows that such interaction torques are taken into account during ...
Effects of Spring Temperatures on the Strength of Selection on Timing of Reproduction in a Long-Distance Migratory Bird
(Public Library Science, 2015-04)
Climate change has differentially affected the timing of seasonal events for interacting trophic levels, and this has often led to increased selection on seasonal timing. Yet, the environmental variables driving this ...
Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: action identification by a dynamic recurrent neural network
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-09-17)
In this study we employed a dynamic recurrent neural network (DRNN) in a novel fashion to reveal characteristics of control modules underlying the generation of muscle activations when drawing figures with the outstretched ...
Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: Component analysis of EMG signals
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-01-09)
A central question in Neuroscience is that of how the nervous system generates the spatiotemporal commands needed to realize complex gestures, such as handwriting. A key postulate is that the central nervous system (CNS) ...
Sensorimotor activation related to speaker vs. listener role during natural conversation
(Neuroscience Letters, 2016)
Although the main function of speech is communication, the brain bases of speaking and listening are typically
studied in single subjects, leaving unsettled how brain function supports interactive vocal exchange.
Here ...
