The influence of contraction duration in muscle energy technique applied to the atlanto-axial joint

open access: yes, 2004
Background: Muscle Energy Technique (MET) has been advocated for the treatment of restricted range of motion in the upper neck. There is little evidence, however, to support the effectiveness of MET to increase motion in the cervical spine, or determine ...

A neurobiological and computational analysis of target discrimination in visual clutter by the insect visual system. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Some insects have the capability to detect and track small moving objects, often against cluttered moving backgrounds. Determining how this task is performed is an intriguing challenge, both from a physiological and computational perspective.
