Homeostatic Plasticity in the Hippocampus Facilitates Memory Extinction by Pablo Mendez, Thomas Stefanelli, Carmen E. Flores, Dominique Muller, Christian Lüscher

“…Applied selectively to the ensemble of granule cells encoding a contextual fear memory, the spike trains impaired memory recall and facilitated extinction. Our results indicate that homeostatic plasticity triggered by optogenetic neuronal firing alters the balance between excitation and inhibition in favor of memory extinction.…”

On the potential for extinction by Muller's Ratchet in <it>Caenorhabditis elegans</it> by Loewe Laurence, Cutter Asher D

“…Using the best available estimates for parameters of how <it>C. elegans </it>evolves, we conclude that pure selfing can persist for only short evolutionary intervals, and is expected to lead to extinction within thousands of years for a plausible portion of parameter space. …”

Taenia solium taeniasis and cysticercosis: extinction or outbreak by Jacob I. Irunde, Faraja B. Luhanda

“…In this work, we formulate and analyze deterministic and continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) stochastic models to determine parameters that drive Taenia solium taeniasis and cysticercosis and the likelihood of their extinction. The basic reproduction number $$R_0$$ R 0 is computed by the next generation matrix approach, sensitivity index of each parameter in $$R_0$$ R 0 is derived by the normalized forward sensitivity index and the likelihood of diseases’ extinction is computed by the multitype branching process. …”
