A Lightweight Procedural Layer for Hybrid Experimental–Computational Workflows in Materials Science

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We unveil a prototype hybrid‐workflow framework that fuses automatedcomputation with hands‐on experiments. Built atop pyiron, a lightweight, parameterized layer translates procedure descriptions into executable manual steps, syncing instrument settings, human interventions, and data capture in real‐time today.

Demystifying visual word form area visual and nonvisual response properties with precision fMRI

iScience
Summary: The visual word form area (VWFA) is a region in the left ventrotemporal cortex (VTC) whose specificity remains contentious. Using precision fMRI, we examine the VWFA’s responses to numerous visual and nonvisual stimuli, comparing them to ...

Development of parallel auditory thalamocortical pathways for two different behaviors

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
Auditory thalamocortical connections are organized as parallel pathways that originate in different divisions of the medial geniculate body (MGB). These pathways may be involved in different functions. Surprisingly little is known about the development

Development of Auditory Selective Attention: Why Children Struggle to Hear in Noisy Environments [PDF]

, 2015
Children’s hearing deteriorates markedly in the presence of unpredictable noise. To explore why, 187 school-age children (4–11 years) and 15 adults performed a tone-in-noise detection task, in which the masking noise varied randomly between every ...

Multiplexing of visual-auditory signals in a predominantly auditory brain region

Abstract A recently proposed theory of neural representation postulates that when more than one stimulus is to be encoded, neurons in that representation may fluctuate between encoding each item. To date, such work has considered only cases in which both stimuli are of the same sensory modality, such as how two sounds are encoded in an ...

Artifact‐Minimizing Ultrathin Transparent Electrodes Fabricated via iCVD for In Vivo Optogenetic Stimulation and Neural Signal Monitoring of Primary Visual Cortex

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present ultrathin flexible transparent electrodes through iCVD‐enabled molecular control of 10 nm gold films on poly(dimethylaminomethylstyrene). In vivo validation demonstrated photoelectric artifact reduction vs. opaque electrodes and preservation of natural neural dynamics.

Sparse Codes for Speech Predict Spectrotemporal Receptive Fields in the Inferior Colliculus [PDF]

, 2012
We have developed a sparse mathematical representation of speech that minimizes the number of active model neurons needed to represent typical speech sounds.

Light‐Actuated Fiber‐Climbing Inchworm Robot Toward Endoluminal Navigation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A kirigami‐inspired soft inchworm robot harnesses optical energy from a customized side‐emitting optical fiber, guaranteeing its propulsion along the fiber body. The wavelength‐selective responsiveness of dye‐functionalized liquid crystal elastomers and the application of temporal illumination patterns enable sequential control of robot components. The

Perinatal Fluoxetine Exposure Has No Major Effect on Myelin-Associated Glycoprotein and Myelin Basic Protein Levels in Auditory Brain Regions

Biology
Hearing loss and serotonergic dysfunction both impact social and cognitive behaviors, yet their neurobiological interplay remains poorly understood. This study investigated whether perinatal fluoxetine exposure alters myelination in (auditory) brain ...

Dynamics of Multi-Sensory Tracking

i-Perception, 2011
These experiments examined the ability to track a moving target with our heads under various stimulus conditions and modalities. While previous studies [1,2] have concentrated on eye tracking within the frontal region; we extended the modes of tracking ...
