Wetting morphologies on an array of fibers of different radii [PDF]
We investigate the equilibrium morphology of a finite volume of liquid placed on two parallel rigid fibers of different radii. As observed for identical radii fibers, the liquid is either in a column morphology or adopts a drop shape depending on the ...

Calcium Imaging Reveals Coordinated Simple Spike Pauses in Populations of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells
The brain’s control of movement is thought to involve coordinated activity between cerebellar Purkinje cells. The results reported here demonstrate that somatic Ca2+ imaging is a faithful reporter of Na+-dependent “simple spike” pauses and enables us to ...

Characteristic Eye Movements in Ataxia-Telangiectasia-Like Disorder: An Explanatory Hypothesis
ObjectiveTo investigate cerebellar dysfunctions and quantitatively characterize specific oculomotor changes in ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder (ATLD), a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the MRE11 gene.

All-Fiber Centralized Architecture for Parallel Terahertz Sensors [PDF]
The use of optical fiber for signal distribution and remote operation of a set of parallel inspection units based on THz time-domain spectroscopy is presented and analyzed. A centralized approach with optical source-sharing simplifies the implementation and cost of nondestructive inspection platforms, where several sensing units have to work in the ...

Inhibition gates supralinear Ca2+ signaling in Purkinje cell dendrites during practiced movements
Motor learning involves neural circuit modifications in the cerebellar cortex, likely through re-weighting of parallel fiber inputs onto Purkinje cells (PCs).

Frequency shifts in natural vibrations in pantographic metamaterials under biaxial tests [PDF]
In this paper a 2D continuum model, thought as the homogenized limit of a microstructured pantographic sheet, is studied. The microstructure is characterized by two families of parallel fibers, whose deformation measures account for bending, elongation ...

Ketamine and Xylazine Depress Sensory-Evoked Parallel Fiber and Climbing Fiber Responses [PDF]
The last few years have seen an increase in the variety of in vivo experiments used for studying cerebellar physiological mechanisms. A combination of ketamine and xylazine has become a particularly popular form of anesthesia. However, because nonanesthetized control conditions are lacking in these experiments, so far there has been no evaluation of ...
