Abstract Memorization and generalization are complementary cognitive processes that jointly promote adaptive behavior. For example, animals should memorize safe routes to specific water sources generalize from these memories discover environmental features predict new ones. These functions depend on systems consolidation mechanisms construct neocortical memory traces hippocampal precursors, but why only applies a subset of is unclear. Here we introduce neural network formalization reveals an...

A proper tensorial logarithmic strain measure and its associated time rate of change is developed using an equivalence between the expressions for isotropic tensor function Sylvester-Lagrange formalism. It shown that specific Cauchy stress T/ρ derivable from a potential with respect to this measure. modified TF be left polar decomposition deformation gradient. Advantages disadvantages formulation are discussed.

To track and control self-location, animals integrate their movements through space. Representations of self-location are observed in the mammalian hippocampal formation, but it is unknown if positional representations exist more ancient brain regions, how they arise from integrated self-motion, by what pathways locomotion. Here, a head-fixed, fictive-swimming, virtual-reality preparation, we exposed larval zebrafish to variety involuntary displacements. They tracked these displacements and,...

All had prior history chronic sinusitis presented cough, dyspnea, sputum production. Three smokers two...

Gemfibrozil, a novel hypolipidemic agent identified chemically as 2,2-dimethyl-5-(2,5-xylyoxy) valeric acid, was evaluated for mutagenic potential in vitro assays with Salmonella typhimurium. For evaluation of tumorigenic potential, gemfibrozil administered the diet (0.30, and 300 mg gemfibrozil/kg) to groups noninbred CD-1 mice (72/sex) CD rats (50/sex) 78 104 weeks, respectively. In bacterial mutagenesis assays, between 100 2,500 microgram gemfibrozil/plate failed induce significant...

Neural network remodeling underpins the ability to remember life experiences, but little is known about long-term plasticity of neural populations. To study how brain encodes episodic events, we used time-lapse two-photon microscopy and a fluorescent reporter based on an enhanced form synaptic activity-responsive element (E-SARE) within Arc promoter track thousands CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells over weeks in mice that repeatedly encountered different environments. Each environment evokes...

Many animals use visual signals to estimate motion. Canonical models suppose that motion by cross-correlating pairs of spatiotemporally separated signals, but recent experiments indicate humans and flies perceive from higher-order correlations signify in natural environments. Here we show how biologically plausible processing motifs neural circuits could be tuned extract this information. We emphasize known aspects Drosophila's circuitry embody tuning predict fly behavior. find segregating...

Internal signals from the body and external environment are processed by brain-wide circuits to guide behavior. However, complete circuit activity underlying interoception - perception of bodily its interactions with sensorimotor remain unclear due technical barriers accessing whole-brain at cellular level during organ physiology perturbations.

Since the demonstration that sequence of a protein encodes its structure, prediction structure from remains an outstanding problem impacts numerous scientific disciplines, including many genome projects. By iteratively fixing secondary assignments residues during Monte Carlo simulations folding, our coarse-grained model without information concerning homology or explicit side chains can outperform current homology-based methods for proteins. The computationally rapid algorithm using only...

ABSTRACT Memorization and generalization are complementary cognitive processes that jointly promote adaptive behavior. For example, animals should memorize a safe route to water source generalize features allow them find new sources, without expecting paths exactly resemble previous ones. Memory aids by allowing the brain extract general patterns from specific instances were spread across time, such as when humans progressively build semantic knowledge episodic memories. This process depends...
