Intrinsically Self-renewing Neuroprogenitors From the A/J Mouse Spiral Ganglion as Virtually Unlimited Source of Mature Auditory Neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Nearly 460 million individuals are affected by sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), one of the most common human sensory disorders. In mammals, hearing loss is permanent due to the lack of efficient regenerative capacity of the sensory epithelia and spiral

Targeting olfaction

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 1996
An olfactory sensory neuron most probably expresses a single olfactory receptor gene, out of 1000 choices. Olfactory neurons expressing the same olfactory receptor are distributed over a wide area of the olfactory epithelium, but they project their axons to a few discrete positions in the olfactory bulb, out of 2500 choices. How?

Review of Memristors for In‐Memory Computing and Spiking Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Memristors uniquely enable energy‐efficient, brain‐inspired computing by acting as both memory and synaptic elements. This review highlights their physical mechanisms, integration in crossbar arrays, and role in spiking neural networks. Key challenges, including variability, relaxation, and stochastic switching, are discussed, alongside emerging ...

Perceiving and Knowing as Activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
According to the tradition of most empiricists, perception is the basis for all our knowledge (at least of the world). The tradition also assumes that perception by humans is a passive activity resulting in some static states pertaining perception and ...

Early and Sustained Improvements in Sense of Smell With Tezepelumab Treatment in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps (WAYPOINT)

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loss of smell is a principal symptom of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), affecting health‐related quality of life and posing a safety hazard. Methods WAYPOINT (NCT04851964), a phase 3, multicenter trial in adults with uncontrolled CRSwNP, randomized patients 1:1 to receive tezepelumab 210 mg or placebo ...

Sniffing out cognitive decline in patients with and without evidence of dopaminergic deficit

open access: yesClinical Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2019
Background: Depletion of dopamine is a major neuropathological feature of Parkinson's disease; however, 15% of patients with parkinsonian motor symptoms have neuroimaging evidence of intact dopaminergic function.

Rapid evolution of chemosensory receptor genes in a pair of sibling species of orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundInsects rely more on chemical signals (semiochemicals) than on any other sensory modality to find, identify, and choose mates. In most insects, pheromone production is typically regulated through biosynthetic pathways, whereas pheromone sensory

Songbirds use scent cues to relocate to feeding sites after displacement: An experiment in great tits (Parus major)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Air-borne chemicals are highly abundant sensory cues and their use in navigation might be one of the major evolutionary mechanisms explaining the development of olfaction in animals. Despite solid evidence for the importance of olfaction in avian life (e.

Integrating Olfaction in a Robotic Telepresence Loop [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this work we propose enhancing a typical robotic telepresence architecture by considering olfactory and wind flow information in addition to the common audio and video channels.

Gas Source Localization Strategies for Teleoperated Mobile Robots. An Experimental Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Gas source localization (GSL) is one of the most important and direct applications of a gas sensitive mobile robot, and consists in searching for one or multiple volatile emission sources with a mobile robot that has improved sensing capabilities (i.e.
