Prescribing competence: The pros and cons of different methods for assessment
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Evaluating a medical graduate’s competence in rational prescribing is challenging. With the aim to guide and inspire teachers, this narrative review explores different methods that can be used to assess prescribing competence. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and thus a mix of different assessment methods is needed throughout the ...

ERP correlates of shared control mechanisms involved in saccade preparation and in covert attention
Brain Research, 2007 We investigated whether attention shifts and eye movement preparation are mediated by shared control mechanisms, as claimed by the premotor theory of attention. ERPs were recorded in three tasks where directional cues presented at the beginning of each trial instructed participants to direct their attention to the cued side without eye movements ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

No-onset looming motion guides spatial attention [PDF]
These 6 experiments explored the ability of moving random dot patterns to attract attention, as measured by a simple probe-detection task. Each trial began with random motion (i.e., dots linearly moved in random directions).

Rewards modulate saccade latency but not exogenous spatial attention [PDF]
, 2015 The eye movement system is sensitive to reward. However, whilst the eye movement system is extremely flexible, the extent to which changes to oculomotor behavior induced by reward paradigms persist beyond the training period or transfer to other ...

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance
Droplet, EarlyView.Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Case report: Spiller syndrome initially mimicking vestibular neuritis
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 Spiller syndrome is a rare subtype of medial medullary infarction (MMI). Herein, we report on a patient with progressing stroke who presented with the initial features of acute peripheral vestibulopathy and MMI (Spiller syndrome), as confirmed by ...

Influence of initial fixation position in scene viewing
, 2016 During scene perception our eyes generate complex sequences of fixations. Predictors of fixation locations are bottom-up factors like luminance contrast, top-down factors like viewing instruction, and systematic biases like the tendency to place ...

In the blink of an eye: Value and novelty drive saccades [PDF]
, 2015 Evidence accumulation is an essential component of value-based decisions. Recent human studies suggest that overt attention correlates with evidence accumulation necessary for optimal decisions.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in the calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II B gene (CAMK2B) have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, including epilepsy, yet the mechanisms underlying cortical dysfunction remain largely unclear.
