The brain has a high blood flow to meet its high obligatory requirement for glucose as a metabolic fuel. Indeed, glucose requirement and blood flow are directly coupled so that the increased metabolic rate during enhanced functional activity of a particular cortical area is associated with increased blood flow. Here a brief review will be given of the most important methods that can be used for...

Protein-protein interfaces have been evolutionarily-designed to enable transduction between the interacting proteins. Thus, we hypothesize that analysis of the dynamics of the complex can reveal details about the nature of the interaction, and in particular whether it is obligatory, i.e., persists throughout the entire lifetime of the proteins, or not. Indeed, normal mode analysis, using the Ga...

Cognitive science has not fully exploited hypnosis and hypnotic suggestion as experimental tools. This study was designed to determine whether a hypnotic suggestion to hinder lexical processing could modulate the Stroop effect. METHODS Behavioral Stroop...
