Toulmin`s Bold Experiment

Bold Aspirations

Interpreting the BOLD signal.

The development of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has brought together a broad community of scientists interested in measuring the neural basis of the human mind. Because fMRI signals are an indirect measure of neural activity, interpreting these signals to make deductions about the nervous system requires some understanding of the signaling mechanisms. We describe our current und...

Bold Suggestion by Smith

Stacia Nordin I appreciate Zlotkin and colleagues’ years of work on the Sprinkle product, and it sounds like the product is much improved from the pill form of micronutrient treatments [1]. I’m not at all opposed to Sprinkle-type products or other nutrient pills for treatment (or in other special situations), but as ten years of international work experience on food and nutrition security issue...

Bold Graph Drawings

When a graph is drawn in a classical manner, its vertices are shown as small disks and its edges with a positive width; zero-width edges exist only in theory. Let r denote the radius of the disks that show vertices and w the width of edges. We give a list of conditions that make such a drawing good and that apply to not necessarily planar graphs. We show that if r < w, a vertex must have consta...
