Connecting Neurones

Grasping neurones

We agree with Robertson that our new view on grasping is a description of motor behaviour rather than offering any insight into the nature of the neural processing underlying this behaviour. However, neurophysiologists might be inspired by our new view to ask other questions, do other experiments, and analyse these differently. In this way, they could generate new insights about the neural cont...

CONNECTING T AND LATTICE-VALUED CONVERGENCES

$top$-filters can be used to define $top$-convergence spaces in the lattice-valued context. Connections between $top$-convergence spaces and lattice-valued convergence spaces are given. Regularity of a $top$-convergence space has recently been defined and studied by Fang and Yue. An equivalent characterization is given in the present work in terms of convergence of closures of $top$-filters.  M...

Neurones to Normoxia and Hypoxia

1. Exposure of 10 R3-R13 neurones to a 115-min period of hypoxia resulted in depolarization of their membrane potentials (EM) from a mean of -46-9 ± 3-1 to-20-8 ± 4-4mV (S.E.). 2. Intracellular potassium ion activities (a^) decreased significantly from 118-9 ± 5 1 to 67-7 ± 8-5rnM-K. This is equivalent to a change in EKirom — 70-9 mV to —54-5 mV, which is insufficient to account for depolarizat...

Connecting Yule Process, Bisection and Binary Search Tree via Martingales

We present new links between some remarkable martingales found in the study of the Binary Search Tree or of the bisection problem, looking at them on the probability space of a continuous time binary branching process.
