Sentences with phrase «in microcircuit»

It has been a longstanding hypothesis that alterations in the microcircuit of the prefrontal cortex and / or in its connectivity with the rest of the brain may be at the core of many of these disorders.

It has the key physical and chemical properties needed in microcircuit fabrication and is abundant and therefore cheap.

In the electrical currents that flow in the microcircuits of today's gadgets, the electrons behave like particles and follow classical, predictable laws of heat transfer.

New research by scientists at the University of Pittsburgh provides an unprecedented level of resolution and insight into disturbances in cortical GABAergic microcircuits, which are thought to underlie cognitive impairments in schizophrenia.

This approach — which has only recently been developed and employed in the field — allowed researchers to induce the formation of these specialized microcircuits with synchronous behavior in the lab.

Future studies investigating how neural signals change in response to microstimulation (and how these changes vary with the precise targeting of the stimulating electrode) will be critical for increasing our understanding, not only of the physiological signatures of microstimulation, but also the microcircuit dynamics underlying memory.

In addition to the interesting implications for our understanding of microcircuit dynamics of memory, this paves the way to developing new avenues that could one day be used for treating patients with chronic memory impairment.

Although non-invasive methods to explore brain function in humans such as functional imaging and EEG / MEG have been informative regarding the potential role of a given brain area in a particular cognitive function, they lack the necessary temporal and spatial resolution to study brain microcircuits.

The goal of this work is to characterize the role of dendrites in learning and memory processes so as to formulate a unifying theory regarding their contribution in memory formation across brain regions and abstraction levels.This will be achieved via the development of computational models that start at the single cell level and expand to the microcircuit and the network level, while varying in their degree of biophysical detail.

Novel MRI acquisition and analysis methods are paving the way for in - vivo assessment of the layer - specific microcircuits first targeted by neurodegenerative diseases.

These studies reveal for the first time specific functional connections between subsets of KCs and particular MBONs and establish the identity of synaptic microcircuits underlying transmission of homeostatic sleep signals in the MB.

Importantly, activity of the sleep - promoting MB microcircuit is increased by sleep deprivation and is necessary for homeostatic rebound sleep (i.e., the increased sleep that occurs after, and in compensation for, sleep lost during deprivation).

I'm wondering about what I've recently read about Chemtrails being used to «protect microcircuits from radiation», creating a «web of electrically conducting sheets» or «metallic nets of ultra-fine mesh - spacing» in the stratosphere to protect our semiconductors from atmospheric radiation (solar flares aka coronal ejections).

That would be difficult, but it should be feasible in the near future with microcircuit fabrication techniques, Lin says.

The coil in the device absorbs the magnetic energy and the microcircuit attached to the coil converts the magnetic energy to electrical energy and recharges the battery.
