Tracks of a non-main path traveler: 2011 Thomas Willis Lecture.

The 2006 Thomas Willis lecture: the adventures of a translational researcher in stroke and migraine.

It is especially meaningful to receive an award honoring Thomas Willis. Besides making seminal contributions to the physiology of the great circle, Willis was the first to assign separate functions to distinct brain regions and the first to number the cranial nerves in the way we identify them today. Willis was also among the earliest translational researchers, although it took 400 years for th...

Design of an Intelligent Controller for Station Keeping, Attitude Control, and Path Tracking of a Quadrotor Using Recursive Neural Networks

During recent years there has been growing interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Moreover, the necessity to control and navigate these vehicles has attracted much attention from researchers in this field. This is mostly due to the fact that the interactions between turbulent airflows apply complex aerodynamic forces to the system. Since the dynamics of a quadrotor are non-linear and the ...

Anatomical Variations of Circle of Willis in 57 Human Brains

Purpose: The circle of willis is responsible for blood supply of brain, which may suffer from anatomical variations. These disturbances can lead to aneurysm or even arterial rupture. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anatomical structure of the cerebral arteries forming the circle of willis in adult cadavers. Also, cerebral versus non- cerebral versus non-cerebral arterial walls wer...
