Wiring the Drosophila Brain with Individually Tailored Neural Lineages
A complex brain consists of multiple intricate neural networks assembled from distinct sets of input and output neurons as well as region-specific local interneurons. Within a given anatomical set, there exist diverse neuronal types that can vary in morphology, neural physiology, and modes of neurotransmission. The genetic programs that guide specification of neuronal types during neurogenesis ...
متن کاملIndividually Tailored Medical Counseling for Pregnant Smokers
Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death and disability in most developed countries.1 Pregnancy is a time during which health care is of special concern and theoretically should provide strong motivation for a woman to quit. Nevertheless, in spite of the health risk smoking poses for children, the intention to quit has not been found to be significantly different in pregnant and ORIGIN...
متن کامل[Individually tailored medical counseling for pregnant smokers].
OBJECTIVES To identify the characteristics of smoking addiction in a group of pregnant women, to evaluate the efficacy of medical counseling tailored to the patient's stage in the cessation process and to examine factors that might affect the ability of a woman to quit smoking during pregnancy. PATIENTS AND METHODS One hundred sixteen women (mean age 29.71 5.44 years; range 15-41) were referr...
متن کاملWiring Optimization in the Brain
La Jolla, CA 92037 [email protected] The complexity of cortical circuits may be characterized by the number of synapses per neuron. We study the dependence of complexity on the fraction of the cortical volume that is made up of "wire" (that is, ofaxons and dendrites), and find that complexity is maximized when wire takes up about 60% of the cortical volume. This prediction is in good agreement w...
متن کاملNeural wiring optimization.
Combinatorial network optimization theory concerns minimization of connection costs among interconnected components in systems such as electronic circuits. As an organization principle, similar wiring minimization can be observed at various levels of nervous systems, invertebrate and vertebrate, including primate, from placement of the entire brain in the body down to the subcellular level of n...
