Many real-world networked systems exhibit a multicore-periphery structure, i.e., multiple cores, each of which contains densely connected elements, surrounded by sparsely connected elements that define the periphery. Identification of the multiple-periphery structure can provide a new handle on structures and functions of various complex networks, such as cognitive and biological networks, food...

T elomere association with nuclear pores is critical not only for transcriptional silencing but also for effi cient repair of double-stranded breaks in the subtelomeric region of budding yeast chromosomes, according to Therizols et al. (page 189). As in many organisms, yeast telomeres localize to the nuclear periphery. To determine whether nuclear pore proteins are involved in telomere tetherin...

CASE REPORT A 39-year-old woman presented in November 1994 to the Accident and Emergency Department of the Birmingham and Midland Eye Hospital with a recent onset of a shadow and floaters in the temporal field of her vision of her left eye. She had previously attended in October 1993 with an unusual appearance of the temporal periphery of the right retina. This lesion was thought to be a retino...

Studies of the neural control of locomotion have tended to focus on the modulation of motoneuron firing by premotor neurons; new work indicates that the regulation of synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction can also be important, revealing an inverse relationship between input resistance and synaptic output in motoneurons.

Preface I come from Poland. Several months ago I came to Eindhoven to do my studies. I followed master programme Human-Technology Interaction at the Eindhoven University of Technology. In the last phase of this study I joined Philips Research, the group of Visual Experiences, where I completed my graduation project. This report is a result of this project. I would like to thank all the people w...
