What can volumes reveal about human brain evolution? A framework for bridging behavioral, histometric, and volumetric perspectives
An overall relationship between brain size and cognitive ability exists across primates. Can more specific information about neural function be gleaned from cortical area volumes? Numerous studies have found significant relationships between brain structures and behaviors. However, few studies have speculated about brain structure-function relationships from the microanatomical to the macroanat...
متن کاملWhat can digital transcript profiling reveal about human cancers?
Important biological and clinical features of malignancy are reflected in its transcript pattern. Recent advances in gene expression technology and informatics have provided a powerful new means to obtain and interpret these expression patterns. A comprehensive approach to expression profiling is serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE), which provides digital information on transcript levels....
متن کاملWhat can sodium MRI reveal about sodium accumulation in the brain: implications for multiple sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis: needs for biomarkers of neuronal injury Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the CNS, representing the leading cause of neuro logical disability in young adults. Focal inflam matory and demyelinating lesions disseminated in the cerebral white matter have been considered for several decades to be the main feature of MS. However, recent histological studies have a...
متن کاملWhat can crossmodal aftereffects reveal about neural representation and dynamics?
The brain continuously adapts to incoming sensory stimuli, which can lead to perceptual illusions in the form of aftereffects. Recently we demonstrated that motion aftereffects transfer between vision and touch.(1) Here, the adapted brain state induced by one modality has consequences for processes in another modality, implying that somewhere in the processing stream, visual and tactile motion ...
متن کاملWhat can biologists say about galaxy evolution ?
It is possible to borrow from a topic of biology called phylogenetic systematics, concepts and tools for a logical and objective classification of galaxies. It is based on observable properties of objects characters either qualitative (like morphology) or quantitative (like luminosity, mass or spectrum). Distance analysis can readily be performed using a method called phenetics and based on cha...
