The unsolved mystery of vision
Vision looms large in neuroscience--it is the subject of a gigantic literature and four Nobel prizes--but there is a growing realization that there are problems with the textbook explanation of how mammalian vision works. Here we will summarize the evidence behind this disquiet. In effect, we shall present a portrait of a field that is 'stuck'. Our initial focus, because it is our area of exper...

Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is considered to be the most common acquired muscle disease associated with aging. It is a disabling disorder still without effective treatment. sIBM causes weakness and atrophy of the distal and proximal muscles. Involvement of quadriceps and deep finger flexors are clues to early diagnosis. Dysphagia in the course of the disease is common. Muscle biopsy...
متن کاملCosmic-rays: an Unsolved Mystery at All Energies!
We consider the phenomenology of cosmic-rays (CRs) and stress the interest of jointly studying their properties over the whole energy spectrum. While UHECRs are known to raise important physical and astrophysical problems, we recall that low-energy CRs also remain poorly understood, and we indicate the possibly important role of superbubbles in accelerating CRs up to a few EeV. We also investig...
متن کاملMultidrug-resistant tuberculosis and leprosy: An unsolved mystery
Tuberculosis (TB) and leprosy are two age-old infections, which we are facing even today. With drug-resistant TB on the rise, we report a case of multidrug-resistant TB with leprosy, which has never been reported previously. The peculiar course of this case forces us to rethink about the upcoming challenges due to their cooccurrence.
متن کاملMystery unsolved: missing limbs in deformed amphibians.
Ballengee and Sessions (2009) claim that predatory attacks by small predators such as Sympetrum dragonfly larvae are sufficient to explain amphibian limb deformities in which the limb is partly or completely missing. This deformity type, the most common in nature, is not well explained by Ribeiroia infection which has also been nominated as a mechanism for limb deformities. We argue that the co...
