Mobility and community at Mesolithic Lake Onega, Karelia, north-west Russia: insights from strontium isotope analysis by Eckelmann, R, Arppe, L, Tarasov, A, Pospieszny, Ł, Ackerman, L, Heyd, V, Gerasimov, D, Moiseyev, V, Fairbanks, V, Hyland, C, Mannermaa, K

“…Radiogenic strontium isotope analysis (87Sr/86Sr) was used to identify group dynamics within the cemetery and examine the site’s place within local and supra-regional networks. The analysis of 57 humans and 31 animals was supported by the creation of an environmental baseline which identified four key geological zones and defines the strontium characteristics of Lake Onega. …”

Correlated and anticorrelated binocular disparity modulate GABA+ and glutamate/glutamine concentrations in the human visual cortex by Matuszewski, J, Ip, IB, Alvarez, I, Clarke, WT, Parker, AJ, Bridge, H

“…Glx during viewing of anticorrelation in LO was predictive of object-selective BOLD-activity in the same region. <br> We provide evidence that early and ventral visual cortices change GABA+ and Glx concentrations during presentation of correlated and anticorrelated disparity, suggesting a contribution of cortical excitation and inhibition to disparity selectivity.…”
