RTMS NEUROMODULATION IMPROVES ELECTROCORTICAL FUNCTIONAL MEASURES OF INFORMATION PROCESSING AND BEHAVIORAL RESPONSES IN AUTISM

rTMS neuromodulation improves electrocortical functional measures of information processing and behavioral responses in autism

Objectives: Reports in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) of a minicolumnopathy with consequent deficits of lateral inhibition help explain observed behavioral and executive dysfunctions.We propose that neuromodulation based on rTMS will enhance lateral inhibition through activation of inhibitory double bouquet interneurons and will be accompanied by

TWIN-10: protocol for a 10-year longitudinal twin study of the neuroscience of mental well-being and resilience

Introduction Mental well-being is a core component of mental health, and resilience is a key process of positive adaptive recovery following adversity.However, we lack an understanding of the neural mechanisms that contribute to individual variation in the trajectories of well-being and resilience relative to risk.Genetic and/or environmental facto

The metabolism of aged seeds. The free and membrane-bound polyribosomes of germinating rye grains of different ages

Grains of winter rye harvested in 1976, 1978, 1982 and 1984 were studied.Free and membrane-bound polyribosomes were isolated from embryos Dive Buddy of imbibing and germinating grains.There was no correlation between grain viability and the amout of ribosomes.The highest incorporation of radioactive precursors (both total and specific radioactivity
