STATISTICAL COMPLEXITY AND NONTRIVIAL COLLECTIVE BEHAVIOR IN ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAFIC SIGNALS
, 901
"... We calculate a measure of statistical complexity from the global dynamics of electroencephalographic (EEG) signals from healthy subjects and epileptic patients, and are able to stablish a criterion to characterize the collective behavior in both groups of individuals. It is found that the collective ..."

suggest that epilepsy is a degenerative illness related to the loss of complexity in the brain. PACS numbers: 05.45.-a, 05.45.Xt, 05.45.Ra 1 The concept of complex systems has become a new paradigm for the search of mechanisms and a unified interpretation of the processes of emergence of structures
From structure to cellular mechanism with infrared microspectroscopy
- Curr Opin Struct Biol
"... Current efforts in structural biology aim to integrate structural information within the context of cellular organization and function. X-rays and infrared radiation stand at opposite ends of the electromagnetic spectrum and act as complementary probes for achieving this goal. Intense and bright be ..."

spectroscopic probe and imaging tool for correlating molecular structure to biochemical dynamics and function. In this manuscript, the role of synchrotron FTIRM in bridging the gap towards 'functional biology' is discussed based upon recent achievements, with a critical assessment of the contributions
THE EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL B From short to fat tails in financial markets: a unified description
, 2007
"... Abstract. In complex systems such as turbulent flows and financial markets, the dynamics in long and short time-lags, signaled by Gaussian and fat-tailed statistics, respectively, calls for a unified description. To address this issue we analyze a real dataset, namely, price fluctuations, in a wide ..."

The second one is to determine analytically, from the stochastic equations that emerge from the first step, the family
Title of Document: QUANTUM MECHANICS AND QUANTUM INFORMATION THEORY
"... The principle aim of this dissertation is to investigate the philosophical application of quantum information theory to interpretational issues regarding the theory of quantum mechanics. Recently, quantum information theory has emerged as a potential source for such an interpretation. The main quest ..."

Presidential Address Neural Substrates of Implicit and Explicit Emotional Processes: A Unifying Framework for Psychosomatic Medicine
"... There are two broad themes in psychosomatic medicine research that relate emotions to physical disease outcomes. Theme 1 holds that self-reported negative affect has deleterious effects and self-reported positive affect has salubrious effects on health. Theme 2 holds that interference with the expe ..."

did not attempt to formulate a detailed model of how the brain mediates emotion (69). In 1937, James Papez published a landmark paper in which he proposed the first complete neural circuit mediating emotion (70). This proposal postulated a role for brain structures, whose function was not understood
Memory and burstiness in dynamic networks Memory and burstiness in dynamic networks
"... A discrete-time random process is described which can generate bursty sequences of events. A Bernoulli process, where the probability of an event occurring at time t is given by a fixed probability x, is modified to include a memory effect where the event probability is increased proportionally to ..."

The remainder of this paper is structured as follows: We describe a process for generating a sequence of events which, under certain circumstances, produces a powerlaw inter-event time distribution

"... The information processing abilities of neural circuits arise from their synaptic connection patterns. Understanding the laws governing these connectivity patterns is essential for understanding brain function. The overall distribution of synaptic strengths of local excitatory connections in cortex ..."

In the network, associative synaptic plasticity in the form of STDP induces a rich-get-richer dynamics among synapses, while homeostatic mechanisms induce competition.

ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: Weakly Compressible Navier-Stokes Approximation of Gas Dynamics

These approximations are derived in regimes in which (1) transport coeffi-cients (viscosity and thermal conductivity) are small and ..."

"... Abstract Asymmetric divisions of radial glial progenitors produce self-renewing radial glia and differentiating cells simultaneously in the ventricular zone (VZ) of the developing neocortex. While differentiating cells leave the VZ to constitute the future neocortex, renewing radial glial progenito ..."

All normal animal cells initially inherit one centrosome, consisting of a pair of centrioles surrounded by an amorphous pericentriolar material (PCM). The two centrioles differ in their structure and function 9, 14, 15. The older
