A mouse model for too much TV?

In a new study published in Scientific Reports, Christakis and colleagues investigate a mouse model for technology-induced overstimulation. We review their findings, discuss the challenges of defining overstimulation, and consider the resemblance of the phenotypes observed in Christakis et al. to those noted in genetic models of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Too Much Information Can Be Too Much for Learning Eciently

In designing learning algorithms it seems quite reasonable to construct them in a way such that all data the algorithm already has obtained are correctly and completely re ected in the description the algorithm outputs on these data. However, this approach may totally fail, i.e., it may lead to the unsolvability of the learning problem, or it may exclude any e cient solution of it. In particula...

Too much or too little

The global effort to understand the molecular drivers of cancer onset and progression is now coming to fruition with the identification of specific genomic and epigenomic events that influence signaling through key oncogenic pathways. Genetic studies using inducible expression of the critical growth controlling oncogenes MYC, RAS, PI3K and AKT have shown unequivocally that, in conjunction with ...
