Switched-Current Chaotic Neurons [PDF]
The Letter presents two nonlinear CMOS current-mode circuits that implement neuron soma equations for chaotic neural networks. They have been fabricated in a double-metal, single-poly 1.6µm CMOS technology.

Axonal amyloid precursor protein and its fragments undergo somatodendritic endocytosis and processing. [PDF]
Deposition of potentially neurotoxic Aβ fragments derived from amyloid precursor protein (APP) at synapses may be a key contributor to Alzheimer's disease.

Trade-off between somatic and germline repair in a vertebrate supports the "expensive germ line" hypothesis [PDF]
The disposable soma theory is a central tenet of the biology of aging where germline immortality comes at the cost of an aging soma [T. B. L. Kirkwood, Nature 270, 301–304 (1977); T. B. L. Kirkwood, Proc. R. Soc. Lond. B Biol. Sci. 205, 531–546 (1979); T.

Nerve Conduction Through Dendrites via Proton Hopping [PDF]
Background: In our previous studies of nerve conduction conducted by proton hopping, we have considered the axon, soma, synapse and the nodes of Ranvier.

Life-history and hormonal control of aggression in black redstarts: blocking testosterone does not decrease territorial aggression, but changes the emphasis of vocal behaviours during simulated territorial intrusions [PDF]
Introduction: Many studies in behavioural endocrinology attempt to link territorial aggression with testosterone, but the exact relationship between testosterone and territorial behaviour is still unclear and may depend on the ecology of a species.

General features of the retinal connectome determine the computation of motion anticipation [PDF]
Motion anticipation allows the visual system to compensate for the slow speed of phototransduction so that a moving object can be accurately located.

Mixed-Signal Testability Analysis for Data-Converter IPs [PDF]
In this paper, a new procedure to derive testability measures is presented. Digital testability can be calculated by means of probability, while in analog it is possible to calculate testability using impedance values. Although attempts have been made to

Foxp1 and lhx1 coordinate motor neuron migration with axon trajectory choice by gating Reelin signalling. [PDF]
Topographic neuronal maps arise as a consequence of axon trajectory choice correlated with the localisation of neuronal soma, but the identity of the pathways coordinating these processes is unknown.
