Seizures in the Developing Brain Perhaps Not So Benign after All

ronal activity into the large-scale synchronization charSeizures are one of the most common yet frightening acteristic of seizures. In addition, a shorter period of neurological conditions encountered in humans. While postictal refractoriness in young animals leads to a quick seizures can occur at any age, affecting at least 2% of progression through early stages of kindling and to a the popula...

Not so simple after all

Biologists have long thought that the internal workings of prokary­ otes—the smallest and simplest organisms, including bacteria—are well understood, and have accordingly consid­ ered eukaryotic organisms and their cells to be more fascinating objects for study. During the past decade, however, the focus of some research has begun to turn back to prokaryotes—particularly because genomic analyse...

A not-so-normal mode decomposition

We provide a generalization of the normal mode decomposition for non-symmetric or locality constrained situations. This allows for instance to locally decouple a bipartitioned collection of arbitrarily correlated oscillators up to elementary pairs into which all correlations are condensed. Similarly, it enables us to decouple the interaction parts of multi-mode channels into single-mode and pai...
