  • Loudness

    Edited by Mary Florentine, Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Loudness is the primary psychological correlate of intensity. When the intensity of a sound increases, loudness increases. However, there exists no simple one-to-one correspondence between loudness and intensity; loudness can be changed by modifying the frequency or the duration of the sound, or by adding background sounds. Loudness also changes with the listener’s cognitive state. Loudness ... Read more

  • Analysis and Modeling of Coordinated Multi-neuronal Activity

    Edited by Masami Tatsuno ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Since information in the brain is processed by the exchange of spikes among neurons, a study of such group dynamics is extremely important in understanding hippocampus dependent memory. These spike patterns and local field potentials (LFPs) have been analyzed by various statistical methods. These studies have led to important findings of memory information processing. For example, memory-trace ... Read more

  • Affective Touch and the Neurophysiology of CT Afferents

    Edited by Håkan Olausson, Johan Wessberg, India Morrison, Francis McGlone ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    CT afferents are receptors in mammalian hairy skin that fire action potentials when the skin is touched lightly which makes them particularly important in affective touch. Traditionally neuroscientific research has focused on more discriminative and haptic properties of touch that are mediated by large myelinated afferents and the coding properties and functional organization of unmyelinated CT ...

  • Mitochondrial Dynamics and Neurodegeneration

    Edited by Bingwei Lu ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Mitochondria are essential organelles in eukaryotic cells that control such diverse processes as energy metabolism, calcium buffering, and cell death. Recent studies have revealed that changes in mitochondrial morphology by fission and fusion, a process known as mitochondrial dynamics, is particularly important for neuronal function and survival. Defects in this process are commonly found in ... Read more
