  • Nanotechnology, the Brain, and the Future

    Edited by Sean A. Hays, Jason Scott Robert, Clark A. Miller, Ira Bennett ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Our brain is the source of everything that makes us human: language, creativity, rationality, emotion, communication, culture, politics. The neurosciences have given us, in recent decades, fundamental new insights into how the brain works and what that means for how we see ourselves as individuals and as communities. Now – with the help of new advances in nanotechnology – brain science proposes to ... Read more

  • Dynamics of Visual Motion Processing

    Neuronal, Behavioral, and Computational Approaches

    Edited by Guillaume S. Masson, Uwe J. Ilg ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Motion processing is an essential piece of the complex brain machinery that allows us to reconstruct the 3D layout of objects in the environment, to break camouflage, to perform scene segmentation, to estimate the ego movement, and to control our action. Although motion perception and its neural basis have been a topic of intensive research and modeling the last two decades, recent experimental ... Read more

  • Oxidative Neural Injury

    Edited by Sigrid C. Veasey ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways ... Read more

  • Neurobiological Bases of Abnormal Aggression and Violent Behaviour

    by József Haller ...
    Mechanisms controlling aggressive behavior started to be identified from late 20's of the 20th century and subsequent research described such mechanisms in great detail. While the findings are of great relevance for the understanding of aggression per se, they provide limited insights into the mechanisms of abnormal aggression i.e. those mechanisms that underlie aggression-related ...

  • Form Versus Function: Theory and Models for Neuronal Substrates

    by Mihai Alexandru Petrovici ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis addresses one of the most fundamental challenges for modern science: how can the brain as a network of neurons process information, how can it create and store internal models of our world, and how can it infer conclusions from ambiguous data? The author addresses these questions with the rigorous language of mathematics and theoretical physics, an approach that requires a high degree ... Read more
