Purkinje cells in Crus I and II encode the visual stimulus and the impending choice as monkeys learn a reinforcement based visuomotor association task

Posted by dbos Columbia

Kavli Affiliate: Stefano Fusi and Michael Goldberg | Authors: Anna Ipata, Valeria Fascianelli, Chris I De Zeeuw, Naveen Sendhilnathan, Stefano Fusi and Michael E. Goldberg | Summary: Visuomotor association involves linking an arbitrary visual cue to a well-learned movement. Transient inactivation of Crus I/II impairs primates’ ability to learn new associations and delays motor responses […]

Possible anti-correlations between pulsation amplitudes and the disk growth of Be stars in giant-outbursting Be X-ray binaries

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Masafumi Niwano, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Ryan M. Lau, Kishalay De, Roberto Soria | Summary: The mechanism of X-ray outbursts in Be X-ray binaries remains a mystery, and understanding their circumstellar disks is crucial for a solution of the mass-transfer problem. In particular, it is important to identify […]
