Perceptual Learning, Long-Range Horizontal Connections And Top-Down Influences In Primary Visual Cortex
Valentin Piëch
Jan 01, 0001
The earliest cortical stage of visual processing, the primary visual cortex, has long been seen as a static preprocessor that finds local edges and their orientation like a linear filter bank, and passes this information on to...

The Gamification of Code
Teaching an introductory web design course is already a blended environment. Students meet face-to-face, yet have access to a myriad of online resources, YouTube videos, blogs, and forums to support their learning. However, the...

Recovering World-Welcoming Words
This article presents a theological–literary response to a concern in contemporary theory with heeding and articulating the speech of nonhuman things. Drawing from Rowan Williams’ metaphysics of poetic addition, I argue...

Assessing international alcohol consumption patterns during isolation from the COVID-19 pandemic using an online survey
Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has required drastic safety measures to control virus spread, including an extended self-isolation period. Stressful situations increase alcohol craving and consumption in alcohol use disorder...
Blowups with log canonical singularities
We show that the minimum weight of a weighted blowup of Ad with ε–log canonical singularities is bounded by a constant depending only on ε and d . This was conjectured by Birkar. Using the recent classification of...

Fine-scale computations for adaptive processing in the human brain
Elisa Zamboni, Valentin G Kemper, Nuno Reis Goncalves, Ke Jia, Vasilis M Karlaftis, Samuel J Bell, Joseph Giorgio, Reuben Rideaux, Rainer Goebel, Zoe Kourtzi

Adapting to the environment statistics by reducing brain responses to repetitive sensory information is key for efficient information processing. Yet, the fine-scale computations that support this adaptive processing in the...
The Role of Language in Structuring Social Networks Following Market Integration in a Yucatec Maya Population.
Language is the human universal mode of communication, and is dynamic and constantly in flux accommodating user needs as individuals interface with a changing world. However, we know surprisingly little about how language...
Geographical and social isolation drive the evolution of Austronesian languages.
The origins of linguistic diversity remain controversial. Studies disagree on whether group features such as population size or social structure accelerate or decelerate linguistic differentiation. While some analyses of...
Expression of Urocortin 3 mRNA in the Central Nervous System of the Sea Lamprey Petromyzon marinus.
In this study, we analyzed the organization of urocortin 3 (Ucn3)-expressing neuronal populations in the brain of the adult sea lamprey by means of in situ hybridization. We also studied the brain of larval sea lampreys to...

Streptococcus suis is a swine pathogen and a zoonotic agent afflicting people in close contact with infected pigs or pork meat. Sporadic cases of human infections have been reported worldwide. In addition, S. suis outbreaks...
A comprehensive assessment of demographic, environmental, and host genetic associations with gut microbiome diversity in healthy individuals.
Petar Scepanovic, Flavia Hodel, Stanislas Mondot, Valentin Partula, Allyson Byrd, Christian Hammer, Cécile Alanio, Jacob Bergstedt, Etienne Patin, Mathilde Touvier, Olivier Lantz, Matthew L Albert, Darragh Duffy, Lluis Quintana-Murci, Jacques Fellay, Milieu Intérieur Consortium
Feb 07, 2020
BACKGROUND: The gut microbiome is an important determinant of human health. Its composition has been shown to be influenced by multiple environmental factors and likely by host genetic variation. In the framework of the Milieu...
Ferroelectric Orthorhombic ZrO2 Thin Films Achieved Through Nanosecond Laser Annealing.
Anna PS Crema, Marian C Istrate, Alexandre Silva, Veniero Lenzi, Leonardo Domingues, Megan O Hill, Valentin S Teodorescu, Corneliu Ghica, Maria JM Gomes, Mario Pereira, Luís Marques, Judith L Macmanus-Driscoll, José PB Silva
Mar 23, 2023
A new approach for the stabilization of the ferroelectric orthorhombic ZrO2 films is demonstrated through nanosecond laser annealing (NLA) of as-deposited Si/SiOx /W(14 nm)/ZrO2 (8 nm)/W(22 nm), grown by ion beam sputtering at...
Recurrent Processing Drives Perceptual Plasticity.

Sep 23, 2022
The AAA-ATPase Drg1 is a key factor in eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis that initiates cytoplasmic maturation of the large ribosomal subunit. Drg1 releases the shuttling maturation factor Rlp24 from pre-60S particles shortly after...
Changing language input following market integration in a Yucatec Mayan community
Like many indigenous populations worldwide, Yucatec Maya communities are rapidly undergoing change as they become more connected with urban centers and access to formal education, wage labour, and market goods became more...

Organization of the corticotropin-releasing hormone and corticotropin-releasing hormone-binding protein systems in the central nervous system of the sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus.
The expression of the corticotropin-releasing hormone (PmCRH) and the CRH-binding protein (PmCRHBP) mRNAs was studied by in situ hybridization in the brain of prolarvae, larvae, and adults of the sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus....
