To analyze the cellular and network mechanisms of sustained seizures, we reviewed literature present new data on in vitro epileptiform events. We considered single recurring synchronized population bursts occurring a time scale from tens milliseconds to 1 min.We used intracellular field potential recordings, together with computer simulations, derived three types experimental epileptogenesis: gamma-aminobutyric-acidA (GABAA) blockade, low extracellular [Mg2+]o, 4-aminopyridine (4-AP).In all...
Epileptic discharges lasting 2–90 s, were studied in vitro slices from the ventral hippocampus of adult rats, which inhibition was blocked acutely with bicuculline methiodide (BMI, 5–30 μM) and potassium ([K + ] o ) raised to 5 mM. These seizure-like events (SLEs) comprised three distinct phases, called here primary, secondary, tertiary bursts. Primary bursts lasted 90–150 ms. Secondary a further 70–250 ms, comprising short series afterdischarges riding on same depolarization as primary...

The electroencephalogram (EEG), the graphic recording of electric activity human brain, kindled far-reaching speculations about imminent deciphering mind and brain in 1930s. Regardless thousands neurons cortex, from a person at rest produced surprisingly regular line oscillating 10 per second that disappeared moment mental activity. With ever more groups specializing electroencephalography, however, did not materialize but moved further away information produced. In various approaches...
At the end of 19th century, graphic method kindled attempts to use it for investigating psychic processes. In Germany, Hans Berger took up this line research, later become pioneer electroencephalography (EEG). This trajectory Berger's work is analyzed as an "enabling constraint" guiding him toward EEG at a time when nobody else was pursuing research and also causing serious methodological problems. epistemological perspective analysis, many his problems extend beyond local context point...
ArgumentWhen electricity became a commodity in 1900, it furnished Germany with new attractions and revolutionized everyday life all kinds of tools gadgets; also opened up space for investigating psycho-physical interaction, reviving ideas close linkage between psychic electricity. The paper traces the emergence this electro-psychological framework beyond "electroencephalography," recording electrical brain waves, to "diagnoscopy," personality profiling by electric phrenology.Diagnoscopy...
The visualization of the human body has always been a highly popular affair, and science writing particularly perceptive as to how new media revolutionized science. This article analyzes intertwining science, culture, technology by investigating lavishly illustrated publications Fritz Kahn, arguably one most successful writers internationally between 1920 1960. His illustrations developed specific style that positioned firmly in an industrial modernity machine analogues, which he eventually...
In her PhD thesis Reading Fleck: Questions on Philosophy and Science (Hedfors, 2006) papers based it, Eva Hedfors proposes a sci entifically informed reading of Ludwik Fleck that aims to contest the (puta tive) mythology Fleck. According Hedfors, is believed have been an important scientist. However, careful his scientific papers, she claims, reveals Fleck's studies were poorly done, often meaningless doubtful ethical value. also hints one in promoting views science as social endeavour was...
