Alterations in brain connectivity due to plasticity and synaptic delay

open access: yes, 2017
Brain plasticity refers to brain's ability to change neuronal connections, as a result of environmental stimuli, new experiences, or damage. In this work, we study the effects of the synaptic delay on both the coupling strengths and synchronisation in a ...

Ageing, plasticity, and cognitive reserve in connectionist networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Neurocomputational modeling has suggested that a range of mechanisms can lead to reductions in functional plasticity across development (Thomas & Johnson, 2006).

Towards a speech-based digital biomarker for cognitive impairment: speech as a proxy for cognitive assessment

open access: yesnpj Digital Medicine
With the growing prevalence of cognitive decline in ageing populations, accessible and scalable screening tools are essential for early intervention. This study investigated the potential of automated speech analysis as a proxy for cognitive assessment ...

A stochastic flow rule for granular materials

open access: yes, 2006
There have been many attempts to derive continuum models for dense granular flow, but a general theory is still lacking. Here, we start with Mohr-Coulomb plasticity for quasi-2D granular materials to calculate (average) stresses and slip planes, but we ...

Akkermansia muciniphila-induced trained immune phenotype increases bacterial intracellular survival and attenuates inflammation

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The initial exposure to pathogens and commensals confers innate immune cells the capacity to respond distinctively upon a second stimulus. This training capacity might play key functions in developing an adequate innate immune response to the continuous ...

Coordinated activation of distinct Ca2+ sources and metabotropic glutamate receptors encodes Hebbian synaptic plasticity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
During STDP, the magnitude of postsynaptic Ca2+transients is hypothesized to determine the strength of synaptic plasticity. Here, the authors find that STDP in mature hippocampal synapses does not obey this rule but instead relies on the coordinated ...

The future is plastic: refiguring Malabou’s plasticity

open access: yesJournal for Cultural Research, 2014
This article investigates Catherine Malabou’s claims to have produced some form of beyond of deconstruction with her reworking of the Hegelian concept of “plasticity” (Plastizität). In the light of Malabou’s critique of the unsuitability of the Derridean non-concept of “text” for being a suitable metaphor for neuronal functioning in her Plasticité, I ...

Evaluation of Three Constitutive Models for the Prediction of Hastelloy X Elevated Temperature Cyclic Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
The approach for the method development assumes that, for a thermally loaded structure, the overall strain history is defined by linear elastic analysis.
