Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques can modulate cognitive processing [PDF]
Recent methods that allow a noninvasive modulation of brain activity are able to modulate human cognitive behavior. Among these methods are transcranial electric stimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation that both come in multiple variants.

PACAP and migraine headache: immunomodulation of neural circuits in autonomic ganglia and brain parenchyma. [PDF]
The discovery that intravenous (IV) infusions of the neuropeptide PACAP-38 (pituitary adenylyl cyclase activating peptide-38) induced delayed migraine-like headaches in a large majority of migraine patients has resulted in considerable excitement in ...

Dynamics of the circumstellar gas in the Herbig Ae stars BF Orionis, SV Cephei, WW Vulpeculae and XY Persei [PDF]
We present high resolution (lambda / Delta_lambda = 49000) echelle spectra of the intermediate mass, pre-main sequence stars BF Ori, SV Cep, WW Wul and XY Per. The spectra cover the range 3800-5900 angstroms and monitor the stars on time scales of months

Short-term plasticity of the motor cortex compensates for bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) show impaired short-term potentiation (STP) mechanisms in the primary motor cortex (M1). However, the role played by this neurophysiological abnormality in bradykinesia pathophysiology is unknown.

Preparation of Dispersion-Strengthened Coppers with NbC and TaC by Mechanical Alloying
To prepare a dispersion-strengthened copper-based alloy, mechanical alloying was carried out using pure copper, niobium, tantalum and graphite powders. After mechanical alloying for 144.0 ks,a Cu-Nb-C solid solution+NbC mixture powder and a Cu-Ta-C solid solution+Ta+TaC mixture powder were obtained inthe Cu-Nb-C and Cu-Ta-C systems, respectively. These

Harnessing theta waves: tACS as a breakthrough in alleviating post-stroke chronic pain
Neural oscillations play a critical role in the regulation of brain functions, with theta waves (4–8 Hz) in the sensorimotor cortex significantly influencing pain perception and modulation.

Phase of beta-frequency tACS over primary motor cortex modulates corticospinal excitability
The assessment of corticospinal excitability by means of transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced motor evoked potentials is an established diagnostic tool in neurophysiology and a widely used procedure in fundamental brain research.
