Assemblathon 2: evaluating de novo methods of genome assembly in three vertebrate species.
(Gigascience, 2013-07-22)BACKGROUND: The process of generating raw genome sequence data continues to become cheaper, faster, and more accurate. However, assembly of such data into high-quality, finished genome sequences remains challenging. Many ... -
Chronic spinal cord electrical stimulation protects against 6-hydroxydopamine lesions.
(Scientific reports, 2014-01-23)Although L-dopa continues to be the gold standard for treating motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), it presents long-term complications. Deep brain stimulation is effective, but only a small percentage of idiopathic ... -
Electronic and Spin Correlations in Asymmetric Quantum Point Contacts
(2014)A quantum point contact (QPC) is a quasi-one dimensional electron system, for which the conductance is quantized in unit of $2e^2/h$. This conductance quantization can be explained in a simple single particle picture, where ... -
Forebrain Acetylcholine in Action: Dynamic Activities and Modulation on Target Areas
(2009)Forebrain cholinergic projection systems innervate the entire cortex and hippocampus. These cholinergic systems are involved in a wide range of cognitive and behavioral functions, including learning and memory, attention, ...
