Multifocal imaging for precise, label-free tracking of fast biological processes in 3D
Nature Communications, 2021 Multifocal imaging suffers from a number of limitations. Here the authors report an open-source 3D reconstruction algorithm to enable label-free tracking of spherical and filamentous structures which they use to characterise fluid flow and flagellar ...

Sensory capacity: an information theoretical measure of the performance of a sensor
, 2016 For a general sensory system following an external stochastic signal, we introduce the sensory capacity. This quantity characterizes the performance of a sensor: sensory capacity is maximal if the instantaneous state of the sensor has as much information

Temporal characteristics of the influence of punishment on perceptual decision making in the human brain [PDF]
, 2013 Perceptual decision making is the process by which information from sensory systems is combined and used to influence our behavior. In addition to the sensory input, this process can be affected by other factors, such as reward and punishment for correct

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Neurons with stereotyped and rapid responses provide a reference frame for relative temporal coding in primate auditory cortex [PDF]
, 2012 The precise timing of spikes of cortical neurons relative to stimulus onset carries substantial sensory information. To access this information the sensory systems would need to maintain an internal temporal reference that reflects the precise stimulus ...

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.
