A Unified Gas–Liquid Carbonation Platform for Habit-Controlled Calcite Nanostructures [PDF]
NanomaterialsCalcite habit engineering offers a route to transform CO2 mineralization from bulk sequestration into value-added nanomaterial production. Here, we demonstrate that additive chemistry and seeding strategy can serve as separable, recipe-level levers for ...

Local inhibitory dynamics underpin temporal integration and functional segregation between barrels and septa in the mouse barrel cortex [PDF]
eLifeMice, like humans, enhance tactile perception through repeated sampling of spatially segregated sensory inputs. In the whisker system, individual whisker identity is preserved along the whisker-brainstem-thalamus-cortex pathway, culminating in distinct ...

Purkinje Cell Activity Resonation Generates Rhythmic Behaviors at the Preferred Frequency of 8 Hz
Biomedicines, 2022 Neural activity exhibits oscillations, bursts, and resonance, enhancing responsiveness at preferential frequencies. For example, theta-frequency bursting and resonance in granule cells facilitate synaptic transmission and plasticity mechanisms at the ...

PLoS Computational Biology, 2022 The rodent vibrissal (whisker) system has been studied for decades as a model of active touch sensing. There are no sensors along the length of a whisker; all sensing occurs at the whisker base.

Supra-orbital whiskers act as wind-sensing antennae in rats.
PLoS Biology, 2023 We know little about mammalian anemotaxis or wind sensing. Recently, however, Hartmann and colleagues showed whisker-based anemotaxis in rats. To investigate how whiskers sense airflow, we first tracked whisker tips in anesthetized rats under low (0.5 m ...

The effect of whisker movement on radial distance estimation: a case study in comparative robotics
Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2013 Whisker movement has been shown to be under active control in certain specialist animals such as rats and mice. Though this whisker movement is well characterised, the role and effect of this movement on subsequent sensing is poorly understood.

Functional analysis of ultra high information rates conveyed by rat vibrissal primary afferents
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013 Sensory receptors determine the type and the quantity of information available for perception. Here, we quantified and characterized the information transferred by primary afferents in the rat whisker system using neural system identification ...
