Summary: In higher mammals, motor timing is considered to be dictated by cerebellar control of motor cortical activity, relayed through the cerebellar-thalamo-cortical (CTC) system.Nonetheless, the way cerebellar information is integrated with motor cortical commands and affects their temporal properties remains unclear.To address this issue, we ac
Advances and Challenges for Model and Data Engineering
Following the stimulating discussions in the workshops held during the 9th International Conference on Model and Data Engineering (MEDI 2019), we proposed to edit a special issue compiling the fruitful research resulting from those discussions.This special issue on current research in model and data engineering of the Journal of Universal Computer
GLANCE: A Novel Graphical Tool for Simplifying Analytical Chemistry Method Evaluation
GLANCE (Graphical Layout Tool for Analytical Chemistry Evaluation) is an innovative and adaptable free, editable template specifically designed to help researchers visually summarize their analytical chemistry methods in a structured and clear manner.It provides an accessible solution to the challenge of presenting complex scientific data, offering
Short-term stress: the case of transport and slaughter
Short-term stressors such as transport and slaughter include psychological and physical stimuli that might be aversive for the animals.Restraint, manipulation and sudden phone grip/stand change lead to fear, or psychological stress, while hunger, thirst, fatigue, injury and extreme thermal conditions are considered as physical stresses.Animal respo
Overexpression of a Phosphate Starvation Response AP2/ERF Gene From Physic Nut in Arabidopsis Alters Root Morphological Traits and Phosphate Starvation-Induced Anthocyanin Accumulation
Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) is highly tolerant of barren environments and a significant biofuel plant.To probe mechanisms of its tolerance mechanisms, we have analyzed genome-wide transcriptional profiles of 8-week-old physic nut seedlings subjected to Pi deficiency (P-) for 2 and 16 days, and Pi-sufficient conditions (P+) controls.We identifie
