Investigating Social Immunity in Swarming Locusts via a Triple Animal–Robot–Pathogen Hybrid Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study explores social immunity in gregarious locusts using a groundbreaking animal–robot–pathogen interaction model. By comparing locust responses to biomimetic agents mimicking healthy and infected individuals, significant behavioral changes are revealed.

Factors that modulate olfactory dysfunction

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2018
The olfactory system is one of a few areas in the nervous system which is capable of regeneration throughout the life. Olfactory sensory neurons reside in the nasal cavity are continuously replenished with new neurons arising from stem cells.

Perceiving Smellscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We perceive smells as perduring complex entities within a distal array that might be conceived of as smellscapes. However, the philosophical orthodoxy of Odor Theories has been to deny that smells are perceived as having a distal location.

Skin‐Covered Biohybrid Robotic Finger with Bilayered Permeable Subcutaneous Support for Internal Hydration Supplement

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A bilayered permeable subcutaneous support system is developed to address the hydration challenge in skin‐covered biohybrid robots. Consisting of a perforated skeletal layer and a sponge‐like polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel, the system enables fluid flow, nutrient diffusion, and mechanical support.

A companion to the preclinical common data elements and case report forms for neuropathology studies in epilepsy research. A report of the TASK3 WG2 Neuropathology Working Group of the ILAE/AES Joint Translational Task Force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force initiated the TASK3 working group to create common data elements (CDEs) for various aspects of preclinical epilepsy research studies, which could help improve the standardization of experimental designs.

Olfactory information processing viewed through mitral and tufted cell-specific channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits
Parallel processing is a fundamental strategy of sensory coding. Through this processing, unique and distinct features of sensations are computed and projected to the central targets.

Underlying Mathematics in Diversification of Human Olfactory Receptors in Different Loci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
As per conservative estimate, approximately (51-105) Olfactory Receptors (ORs) loci are present in human genome occurring in clusters. These clusters are apparently unevenly spread as mosaics over 21 pair of human chromosomes.

Worth the Effort: Lessons for Discovery and Care From an Unusual Case of Gorlin Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gorlin‐Goltz Syndrome (GGS) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder encompassing a diverse range of clinical manifestations, including congenital anomalies and predisposition to cancer. Pathogenic variants in PTCH1 and SUFU account for up to 79% and 6% of cases, respectively. Currently, an estimated 15%–27% of individuals with a clinical

The structure of human olfactory space [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We analyze the psychophysical responses of human observers to an ensemble of monomolecular odorants. Each odorant is characterized by a set of 146 perceptual descriptors obtained from a database of odor character profiles. Each odorant is therefore represented by a point in highly multidimensional sensory space. In this work we study the arrangement of

Odors: from chemical structures to gaseous plumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We are immersed within an odorous sea of chemical currents that we parse into individual odors with complex structures. Odors have been posited as determined by the structural relation between the molecules that compose the chemical compounds and their ...
