Conservation of neuron-astrocyte coordinated activity among sensory processing centers of the developing brain

Posted by dbos Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Dwight Bergles | Authors: Vered Kellner, Patrick Parker, Xuelong Mi, Guoqiang Yu, Gesine Saher and Dwight E Bergles | Summary: Abstract Afferent neurons in developing sensory organs exhibit a prolonged period of burst firing prior to the onset of sensory experience. This intrinsically generated activity propagates from the periphery through central processing centers […]

Neural correlates of individual facial recognition in a social wasp

Posted by dbos Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Winrich Freiwald | Authors: Christopher M. Jernigan, Winrich A. Freiwald and Michael J. Sheehan | Summary: Abstract Individual recognition is critical for social behavior across species. Whether recognition is mediated by circuits specialized for social information processing has been a matter of debate. Here we examine the neurobiological underpinning of individual visual facial […]

The Rise of the $R$-Process in the Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus Dwarf Galaxy

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Xiaowei Ou, Alexander P. Ji, Anna Frebel, Rohan P. Naidu, Guilherme Limberg | Summary: Neutron star mergers (NSMs) produce copious amounts of heavy r-process elements after a time delayed inspiral process. Once NSMs are present in a galaxy, r-process elements, such as Eu, are expected to significantly […]

Combined Pre-Supernova Alert System with Kamland and Super-Kamiokande

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Hartz | First 5 Authors: KamLAND, Super-Kamiokande Collaborations, :, Seisho Abe, Minori Eizuka | Summary: Preceding a core-collapse supernova, various processes produce an increasing amount of neutrinos of all flavors characterized by mounting energies from the interior of massive stars. Among them, the electron antineutrinos are potentially detectable by terrestrial neutrino experiments […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey M. Friedman | Authors: Bowen Tan, Kristina Hedbacker, Leah Kelly, Zhaoyue Zhang, Ji-Dung Luo, Joshua D. Rabinowitz and Jeffrey M. Friedman | Summary: Obese humans and diet induced obese mice (DIO) have high leptin levels and fail to respond to the exogenous hormone suggesting that obesity is caused by leptin resistance, the […]
