Brain size and the human cranial base: a prenatal perspective.
Pivotally positioned as the interface between the neurocranium and the face, the cranial base has long been recognized as a key area to our understanding of the origins of modern human skull form. Compared with other primates, modern humans have more coronally orientated petrous bones and a higher degree of basicranial flexion, resulting in a deeper and wider posterior cranial fossa. It has bee...
متن کاملEmotion circuits in the brain.
The field of neuroscience has, after a long period of looking the other way, again embraced emotion as an important research area. Much of the progress has come from studies of fear, and especially fear conditioning. This work has pinpointed the amygdala as an important component of the system involved in the acquisition, storage, and expression of fear memory and has elucidated in detail how s...
متن کاملBuilding Structured Theories
We provide a set of syntactic tools for structuring large collections of logical theories. Their use is demonstrated by a formalisation of algebras that are used in describing the semantics of concepts in programming languages, but also of more general systems.
متن کاملThe addicted human brain viewed in the light of imaging studies: brain circuits and treatment strategies.
Imaging studies have provided evidence of how the human brain changes as an individual becomes addicted. Here, we integrate the findings from imaging studies to propose a model of drug addiction. The process of addiction is initiated in part by the fast and high increases in DA induced by drugs of abuse. We hypothesize that this supraphysiological effect of drugs trigger a series of adaptations...
متن کاملGarbled Circuits via Structured Encryption
The garbled circuit technique transforms a circuit in such a way that it can be evaluated on encrypted inputs. Garbled circuits were originally introduced by Yao (FOCS ’86) for the purpose of secure two-party computation but have since found many applications. In this work, we consider the problem of designing special-purpose garbled circuits, which are garbled circuits that handle only a speci...
