A methodology is presented to enable the usage of a digital tester for an accurate detection of open circuits as well as short circuits in test structures to control backend process steps. Therefore, a novel graph model will be introduced to calculate the resistance values of test structures containing defects. The paper gives a comprehensive description of the procedure to adjust the tester pa...

Schizophrenia is a complex mental disorder caused by an interplay between genetic and environmental factors, including early postnatal stressors. To explore this issue, we use two rat lines, apomorphine-susceptible (APO-SUS) rats that display schizophrenia-relevant features and their phenotypic counterpart, apomorphine-unsusceptible (APO-UNSUS) rats. These rat lines differ not only in their gna...
