Nicholas R. Metrus, MD, is a board-certified neurologist and neuro-oncologist. He currently serves at the Glasser Brain Tumor Center in Summit, New Jersey. An axon is a long, slender fiber extending ...

Abstract: Finite-state predictive torque control (FS-PTC) is computationally expensive, since it uses all voltage vectors (VVs) available from a power converter for prediction and actuation. The ...

Executive function refers to the goal-oriented regulation of one’s own thoughts, actions, and emotions. Its importance is attested by its contribution to the development of other cognitive skills (e.g ...

Learn how to find the inverse of a linear function. A linear function is a function whose highest exponent in the variable(s) is 1. The inverse of a function is a function that reverses the "effect" ...

Small variations in DNA sequence can alter an organism’s response to the environment or susceptibility to disease. Interpreting the impact of genome sequence variation remains a research challenge.

Abstract: The line commutated converter (LCC) based high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission technology facilitates efficient power transmission over long distances, but also arouses system ...

The generic 9-to-5 workday schedule (or what has become the 24/7 or 996 work culture) is a human-constructed paradigm that goes against the natural inter-individual variation in sleep patterns ...

Human populations at high altitude exhibit both unique physiological responses and strong genetic signatures of selection thought to compensate for the decreased availability of oxygen in each breath ...

The hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis has been implicated in the pathophysiology of a variety of mood and cognitive disorders. Neuroendocrine studies have demonstrated HPA axis overactivity in ...

Here we have proposed a model in which increased variability with a given genotype might increase fitness not by changing mean phenotype, but rather by changing the variability of phenotype with a ...
