Neurophysiologic markers of primary motor cortex for laryngeal muscles and premotor cortex in caudal opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus investigated in motor speech disorder : a navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) study [PDF]
Transcranial magnetic stimulation studies have so far reported the results of mapping the primary motor cortex (M1) for hand and tongue muscles in stuttering disorder.

Angry Place Claims and the Deceptive Female Body
In this article, we explore bodily challenges women can experience when making angry place claims in social interactions based on interviews with 47 women across two generations and Candace Clark's concepts of social place claims and micro‐hierarchy. Our empirical analysis explores situations where women experience that their bodies negatively affect ...

Ventral striatum and stuttering: Robust evidence from a case-control study applying DARTEL
A prominent theory of developmental stuttering highlights (dys-)function of the basal ganglia (and in particular the ventral striatum) as a main neural mechanism behind this speech disorder.

Psychogenic Stuttering Following a Gastric Bypass Operation: Case Report [PDF]
We evaluated a 44-year-old female with bipolar affective disorder who presented with a 4-month history of severe stuttering and vague neurologic complaints. She had lost 200 pounds after gastric bypass surgery two years before. A childhood sexual-abuse

ABSTRACT The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), one of the largest birds of prey in the world, is threatened with extinction throughout its entire area of occurrence in the Neotropics. While conservation efforts for the wild populations are crucial, it is also important to focus on ex situ conservation actions.

Altered Modulation of Silent Period in Tongue Motor Cortex of Persistent Developmental Stuttering in Relation to Stuttering Severity [PDF]
Motor balance in developmental stuttering (DS) was investigated with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), with the aim to define novel neural markers of persistent DS in adulthood. Eleven DS adult males were evaluated with TMS on tongue primary motor

Who Makes the Far Right? Exploring Membership Application Data of the National Front of Australia
This paper addresses a problem for scholars examining the question of who supports far right political parties or movements. Due to the semi‐clandestine or oppositional nature of far right groups, historians, as well as those in adjacent disciplines, have often been unable to gain access to sufficient records or data to conduct analysis of who supports

Splatshop: Efficiently Editing Large Gaussian Splat Models
Abstract We present Splatshop, a highly optimized toolbox for interactive editing (selection, deletion, painting, transformation, …) of 3D Gaussian Splatting models. Utilizing a comprehensive collection of heuristic approaches, we carefully balance between exact and fast rendering to enable precise editing without sacrificing real‐time performance. Our

Fibril Structure of Desiccation‐Protective Tardigrade Protein CAHS‐8
We present the atomic structure of the fibril formed by an intrinsically disordered protein that has been shown to be responsible for remarkable environmental stress in tardigrades. X‐ray crystallography reveals a unique mechanism of fibril assembly whereby a single helix forms a stable, antiparallel coiled‐coil dimer, which then assembles into a ...

A study of the role of the FOXP2 and CNTNAP2 genes in persistent developmental stuttering
A number of speech disorders including stuttering have been shown to have important genetic contributions, as indicated by high heritability estimates from twin and other studies.
