Kavli Affiliate: Mark Churchland | Authors: Sean M. Perkins, John P. Cunningham, Qi Wang and Mark M. Churchland | Summary: Decoders for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) assume constraints on neural activity, chosen to reflect scientific beliefs while yielding tractable computations. We document how low tangling — a typical property of motor-cortex neural trajectories — yields unusual […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rafael Yuste | Authors: Justin Lines and Rafael Yuste | Summary: Neuronal ensembles, defined as groups of coactive neurons, dominate cortical activity and are causally related to perceptual states and behavior. Interestingly, ensembles occur spontaneously in the absence of sensory stimulation. To better understand the function of ensembles in spontaneous activity, we explored […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul W. Sternberg | First 5 Authors: Tingtao Zhou, Xuan Wan, Daniel Zhengyu Huang, Zongyi Li, Zhiwei Peng | Summary: Bacteria can swim upstream due to hydrodynamic interactions with the fluid flow in a narrow tube, and pose a clinical threat of urinary tract infection to patients implanted with catheters. Coatings and structured […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mark Ellisman | Authors: Sumin Kim, Sebastien Phan, Thomas R Shaw, Mark H Ellisman, Sarah L Veatch, Sami J Barmada, Samuel S Pappas and William T Dauer | Summary: Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) regulate information transfer between the nucleus and cytoplasm. NPC defects are linked to several neurological diseases, but the processes governing […]
Jinning Liang, Fangzhou Jiang, Shany Danieli, Andrew Benson, Phil Hopkins | Summary: [[{“value”:”The properties of globular clusters (GCs) contain valuable information of their host galaxies and dark-matter halos. In the remarkable example of ultra-diffuse galaxy, NGC5846-UDG1, the GC population exhibits strong radial mass segregation, indicative of dynamical-friction-driven orbital decay, which opens the possibility of using […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Kun-Peng Chen, Morgan Le Delliou, , | Summary: In principle, the local cosmic void can be simply modeled by the spherically symmetric Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric. In practice, the real local cosmic void is probably not spherically symmetric. In this paper, to reconstruct a more realistic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul Alivisatos | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Walker, John Dagdelen, Kevin Cruse, Sanghoon Lee, Samuel Gleason | Summary: Although gold nanorods have been the subject of much research, the pathways for controlling their shape and thereby their optical properties remain largely heuristically understood. Although it is apparent that the simultaneous presence of and […]
