Abstract BNC210 is an investigational small molecule selective negative allosteric modulator of the alpha‐7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR). It is an anxiolytic compound with a novel mechanism of action. In a series of Phase 1 clinical trials in healthy volunteers, psychometric test batteries showed that BNC210 did not cause attention ...

How Laminar Frontal Cortex and Basal Ganglia Circuits Interact to Control Planned and Reactive Saccades [PDF]
The basal ganglia and frontal cortex together allow animals to learn adaptive responses that acquire rewards when prepotent reflexive responses are insufficient.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is approved as an adjunctive treatment of seizures associated with Dravet syndrome, Lennox–Gastaut Syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis. Its therapeutic and adverse effects are thought to arise, at least partly, from a pharmacokinetic interaction with clobazam, another anti‐seizure medication (ASM).

How Listing's Law May Emerge from Neural Control of Reactive Saccades [PDF]
We hypothesize that Listing's Law emerges as a result of two key properties of the saccadic sensory-motor system: 1) The visual sensory apparatus has a 2-D topology and 2) motor synergists are synchronized.

Pro-saccades and anti-saccades to onset and offset targets
Pro- and anti-saccades made to either onset or offset targets were examined to determine which of (1) changes in luminance or (2) the appearance of new peripheral objects, is more important in the reflexive generation of pro-saccades. In two experiments, pro-saccades had faster reaction times than did anti-saccades, but the difference was much greater ...

Itinerant curriculum theory: People's theory against the field's epistemicidal ethos
Abstract The field of curriculum studies suffers from a glaring theoretical impasse. Much of this impasse has been rightly attributed to the triumphalism of the neoliberal wave that has massacred the educational hemisphere with policies and practices that reduce pedagogy to an instrumentalist praxis directly associated with the thirsty desires and ...

Saccadic Behavior during the Response to Pure Vergence Stimuli I: General Properties
If two targets are carefully aligned so that they fall along the cyclopean axis, the required eye movement will be symmetrical with the two eyes turning equally inward or outward. When such “pure vergence stimuli” are used only a “pure vergence movement”

Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Abstract The accurate interpretation of scalp EEG remains an instrumental diagnostic component of epilepsy care. Knowledge of what constitutes normal EEG findings, non‐epileptiform abnormalities, and epileptiform patterns—both ictal and interictal—is essential for appropriate patient management.
