How to label nerve cells so that they can interconnect in an ordered fashion.
We present a method for setting up topographically ordered mappings between two sheets of nerve cells. A set of chemical markers that express the neighborhood relationships within the presynaptic sheet is induced by the fibers into the postsynaptic sheet. The markers are used to guide the fibers to their terminal sites. A case for which this idea may be relevant is the retinotectal projection; ...
متن کاملHow did they do that?
The study by DiDiodato and McAthur describes work to improve the care of patients admitted to hospital with community-acquired pneumonia. They compare length of stay of patients after the implementation of an antimicrobial stewardship programme that was initially led by an infectious diseasetrained pharmacist and then transitioned to a ward-based pharmacist. To estimate the impact on length of ...
متن کاملHow Can People Be so Good at Intercepting Accelerating Objects if They Are so Poor at Visually Judging Acceleration?
People are known to be very poor at visually judging acceleration. Yet, they are extremely proficient at intercepting balls that fall under gravitational acceleration. How is this possible? We previously found that people make systematic errors when trying to tap on targets that move with different constant accelerations or decelerations on interleaved trials. Here, we show that providing conte...
متن کاملHippocampal stem cells: so they are multipotent!
Although neurogenesis continues throughout life in the mammalian brain, the issue of whether the stem cells that drive the process in vivo are self-renewing and multipotent remains unclear. In a recent landmark paper by Bonaguidi et al. (2011) published in Cell, the authors provide clonal evidence that neural stem cells in the dentate gyrus of the adult hippocampus are indeed multipotent and un...
متن کاملIf he can do it, so can they: exposure to counterstereotypically successful exemplars prompts automatic inferences.
After incidental exposure to Blacks who succeeded in counterstereotypical domains (e.g., Brown University President Ruth Simmons, Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison), participants drew an automatic inference that race was not a success-inhibiting factor in modern society. Of note, participants' automatic inferences were not simply guided by their explicit reasoning (i.e., their beliefs about what the...
