Unique Features of the Human Brainstem and Cerebellum

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
The cerebral cortex is greatly expanded in the human brain. There is a parallel expansion of the cerebellum, which is interconnected with the cerebral cortex.

Bidirectional associations between parental negativity and child externalising problems: Social support and neighbourhood cohesion as moderators

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
This study, using data from Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children across ages 4, 7 and 8, found bidirectional associations between parental negativity and child externalising behaviour across ages 7 to 8 but not ages 4 to 7. Contrary to expectations, social support and neighbourhood cohesion did not moderate any of the cross‐lagged paths ...

Memory consolidation in the cerebellar cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Several forms of learning, including classical conditioning of the eyeblink, depend upon the cerebellum. In examining mechanisms of eyeblink conditioning in rabbits, reversible inactivations of the control circuitry have begun to dissociate aspects of ...

Bio‐Based Polyurethanes: Mechanical Performance, Structure–Property Relationships, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This review examines bio‐based polyurethanes from renewable feedstocks, focusing on structure‐property relationships governing mechanical performance. It analyzes reinforcement strategies, benchmarks against petrochemical counterparts, and explores future directions, including non‐isocyanate routes and circular economy integration for sustainable high ...

A unified model of time perception accounts for duration-based and beat-based timing mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012
Accurate timing is an integral aspect of sensory and motor processes such as the perception of speech and music and the execution of skilled movement. Neuropsychological studies of time perception in patient groups and functional neuroimaging studies of ...

Breaking down seagrass fragmentation in a marine heatwave impacted World Heritage Area

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Habitat fragmentation can exacerbate the impacts of habitat loss but is rarely quantified in marine environments. Using satellite‐derived habitat maps, we identify widespread seagrass fragmentation following a marine heatwave that contributed to a dramatic shift in seascape structure in the Shark Bay World Heritage Area.

Climbing fiber coupling between adjacent Purkinje cell dendrites in vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2009
Climbing fiber discharges within the rat cerebellar cortex have been shown to display synchrony, especially for climbing fibers terminating in the same parasagittal bands.

When do firms learn by hiring? How complexity moderates the value of new knowledge

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Organizations often hire employees hoping to acquire new knowledge. While the literature has paid considerable attention to the role of the characteristics of the source of knowledge, the recipient firm, and the knowledge being transferred, it has largely overlooked those of the knowledge being replaced.

Genetic silencing of olivocerebellar synapses causes dystonia-like behaviour in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Dystonia is thought to be driven by impairments in cerebellar signalling. The authors use a mouse genetic approach to silence excitatory transmission in the inferior olive to cerebellum pathway, resulting in dystonia-like signs in the animals which can ...

The olivo-cerebellar system and its relationship to survival circuits

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
How does the cerebellum, the brain’s largest sensorimotor structure, contribute to complex behaviors essential to survival? While we know much about the role of limbic and closely associated brainstem structures in relation to a variety of emotional ...
