Developmental experiences alter the temporal processing characteristics of the visual cortex: Evidence from deaf and hearing native signers

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1629-1644, March 2022., 2022
Compared with hearing nonsigners, deaf and hearing signers showed a higher optimal driving frequency in response to fast periodic visual stimulation, which could be explained by the acquisition of a sign language. Cross‐modal activation was not observed in the deaf group, neither for 12 and 21 Hz, nor for 40 Hz (the considered optimal driving frequency

Soviet Lithuanians, Amber and the "New Balts": historical narratives of national and regional identities in Lithuanian museums, 1940-2009 [PDF]

, 2010
In the twentieth century Lithuania emerged from the crumbling Russian Empire as a post-colonial nationalising state. Its short-lived independence (1918–1940) fea-tured attempts to assemble the material foundations for an imagined community of Lithuanians,

Color pan traps often catch less when there are more flowers around

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 3830-3840, May 2021., 2021
Colour pan traps are often recommended for pollinator monitoring. We report that pan trap catches may suffer from a negative bias due to surrounding flower frequency and color. The occurrence and magnitude of the negative bias were context and taxon dependent, and therefore difficult to adjust for.

All's well that ends well [PDF]

, 2010
A few years ago, Jasanoff adopted the central tenet of my accentological theory, viz. that the Balto-Slavic acute was a stød or glottal stop, not a rising tone (cf. Kortlandt 1975, 1977, 2004, Jasanoff 2004a).

Identification of SRY‐box 30 as an age‐related essential gatekeeper for male germ‐cell meiosis and differentiation

Aging Cell, Volume 20, Issue 5, May 2021., 2021
We reported that Sox30‐null mice exhibit uniquely impaired testis with irregular Leydig cell proliferation and abnormal germ‐cell arrest at zygotene, and the observed testicular impairments were more severe as mice aged. Sox30 controls male germ‐cell meiosis by a “fail‐safe” regulation of retinoic acid signalling, and re‐expression of Sox30 in Sox30 ...

α‐tACS over the somatosensory cortex enhances tactile spatial discrimination in healthy subjects with low alpha activity

Brain and Behavior, Volume 11, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
10‐Hz tACS can improve tactile orientation discrimination in subjects with low alpha activity. Conversely, 70‐Hz tACS had no effect on tactile orientation discrimination. Abstract Introduction Spontaneous oscillations in the somatosensory cortex, especially of the alpha (8 − 14 Hz) and gamma (60 − 80 Hz) frequencies, affect tactile perception; moreover,

Rapid invisible frequency tagging reveals nonlinear integration of auditory and visual information

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 1138-1152, March 2021., 2021
First, we provided a proof of principle that rapid invisible frequency tagging (RIFT) can be used to tag visual and auditory inputs at high frequencies, resulting in clear spectral peaks in the MEG signal, localized to early sensory cortices. Second, we demonstrated that RIFT can be used to identify intermodulation frequencies in a multimodal, semantic

Baltic and Finnic linguistic relations reflected in geolinguistic studies of the Baltic languages [PDF]

, 2014
The article provides insight into the reflection of Baltic and Finnic language contacts in geolinguistic studies of the Baltic languages. These contacts have a rather long history, and are particularly intense between the Latvian language and Finnic ...
