Oscillatory and evoked neural responses underlying gating in the primary somatosensory cortices: Evidence from optically-pumped magnetometry

NeuroImage
Sensory gating (SG) is a protective mechanism that prevents sensory overload by attenuating neural responses to repeated stimuli while allowing allocation of neural resources to salient inputs.

Chronic cannabis use differentially modulates neural oscillations serving the manipulate versus maintain components of working memory processing

Neurobiology of Disease
The legalization of recreational cannabis use has expanded the availability of this psychoactive substance in the United States. Research has shown that chronic cannabis use is associated with altered working memory function, however, the brain areas and

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.
