Self-regulation : brain, cognition, and development / by 572625 Berger, Andrea

“…Posner, this book will appeal to developmental psychologists, developmental neuroscientists, educational psychologists, and educational practitioners interested in the link between brain sciences and education.…”

What is memory? The present state of the engram by Poo, Mu-ming, Bonhoeffer, Tobias, Martin, Kelsey C., Tsien, Richard W., Fishell, Gord, Mullins, Caitlin, Gonçalves, J. Tiago, Shtrahman, Matthew, Johnston, Stephen T., Gage, Fred H., Dan, Yang, Long, John, Buzsáki, György, Stevens, Charles, Pignatelli di Spinazzola, Michele, Ryan, Tomas John, Tonegawa, Susumu, Rudenko, Andrii, Tsai, Li-Huei

“…Grappling with the question more than a hundred years ago, the German zoologist Richard Semon formulated the concept of the engram, lasting connections in the brain that result from simultaneous "excitations", whose precise physical nature and consequences were out of reach of the biology of his day. Neuroscientists now have the knowledge and tools to tackle this question, however, and this Forum brings together leading contemporary views on the mechanisms of memory and what the engram means today.…”

Dualism and the determination of action by Swinburne, R

“…This chapter argues that it is most unlikely that neuroscientists will ever be able to predict human actions resulting from difficult moral decisions with any high degree of probable success. …”

Is Neuroscience FAIR? A Call for Collaborative Standardisation of Neuroscience Data by Poline, Jean-Baptiste, Kennedy, David N., Sommer, Friedrich T., Ascoli, Giorgio A., Van Essen, David C., Ferguson, Adam R., Grethe, Jeffrey S., Hawrylycz, Michael J., Thompson, Paul M., Poldrack, Russell A., Ghosh, Satrajit S., Keator, David B., Athey, Thomas L., Vogelstein, Joshua T., Mayberg, Helen S., Martone, Maryann E.

“…Abstract In this perspective article, we consider the critical issue of data and other research object standardisation and, specifically, how international collaboration, and organizations such as the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF) can encourage that emerging neuroscience data be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). As neuroscientists engaged in the sharing and integration of multi-modal and multiscale data, we see the current insufficiency of standards as a major impediment in the Interoperability and Reusability of research results. …”

Inside the brain of an elite athlete: the neural processes that support high achievement in sports. by Yarrow, K, Brown, P, Krakauer, J

“…In this way we hope to inspire neuroscientists to consider how their basic research might help to explain sporting skill at the highest levels of performance.…”

The multisensory perception of flavour by Spence, C

“…However, cognitive neuroscientists have only recently come to realise that their insights, derived from studies of the multisensory integration of auditory, visual and tactile stimuli, can be extended to help explain flavour perception. …”

Neuroscience and social problems: the case of neuropunishment by Buyx, A, Birks, D

“…It concludes that neuroscientists and those working at the intersection of neuroscience and the clinic should actively shape these debates.…”

Perirhinal cortical contributions to object perception. by Buckley, M, Gaffan, D

“…We argue that the challenge to MTL memory system theory is substantiated and that the implications are considerable, namely that most psychologists and neuroscientists have held a fundamentally flawed view of how memory is implemented in the brain.…”

Using artificial neural networks to ask ‘why’ questions of minds and brains by Kanwisher, Nancy, Khosla, Meenakshi, Dobs, Katharina

“…Neuroscientists have long characterized the properties and functions of the nervous system, and are increasingly succeeding in answering how brains perform the tasks they do. …”

Production of glycoprotein-deleted rabies viruses for monosynaptic tracing and high-level gene expression in neurons by Wickersham, Ian R., Sullivan, Heather, Seung, H. Sebastian

“…Recombinant rabies viruses rendered replication-deficient by the deletion of their envelope glycoprotein gene are useful tools for neuroscientists, permitting (1) extraordinarily high transgene expression levels within neurons, (2) retrograde infection of projection neurons through their axon terminals, (3) targeted infection of genetically specified neurons and (4) monosynaptic tracing of neuronal inputs. …”

Reasons, reflection, and repugnance by McConnell, D

“…Cognitive psychologists and neuroscientists have recently joined the fray and sought to examine the role of reason on the one hand and emotion on the other in moral outlooks and decisions. …”

Towards a brain like computer - 1 by Aswin s/o Jayakumar

“…In recent years, neuroscientists and nanoscientists have been working together to map the activity of the entire human brain and the eye. …”

Under the mind's hood: what we have learned by watching the brain at work by Van Ede, F, De Ozorio Nobre, K

“…This is the challenge faced by cognitive neuroscientists worldwide aiming to understand the neural bases of our psychological functions. …”

Social touch by Gallace, A, Spence, C

“…That is, psychologists and neuroscientists are only now beginning to uncover some of the neurocognitive mechanisms responsible for these important real-world interactions. …”

The blindsight saga. by Cowey, A

“…It has attracted widespread interest and debate amongst philosophers, cognitive neuropsychologists and visual neuroscientists. Its downside is that possible artefacts abound, much more so than with examples of implicit memory or deaf hearing and numb touch. …”

Separate neural pathways process different decision costs. by Rudebeck, P, Walton, M, Smyth, A, Bannerman, D, Rushworth, M

“…Behavioral ecologists and economists emphasize that potential costs, as well as rewards, influence decision making. Although neuroscientists assume that frontal areas are central to decision making, the evidence is contradictory and the critical region remains unclear. …”

Depiction of the neuroscientific principles of human motion 2 millennia ago by Lucretius. by Hyam, J, Paterson, D, Aziz, T, Green, A

“…This report identifies how Lucretius's description of human motion recognized the fundamental principles understood by contemporary neurologists and neuroscientists, namely the importance of the mind and intelligence in determining whether to move, in the initiation of motion and its effect on the rest of the body; the importance of mental imagery and perception of the motor task's nature and workload in addition to the necessary systemic changes occurring in parallel with the muscle activity. …”

Memory Engram Cells Have Come of Age by Tonegawa, Susumu, Liu, Xu, Ramirez Moreno, Steve, Redondo, Roger L.

“…In the past few years, the combination of transgenics, optogenetics, and other technologies has allowed neuroscientists to begin identifying memory engram cells by detecting specific populations of cells activated during specific learning epochs and by engineering them not only to evoke recall of the original memory, but also to alter the content of the memory.…”
