Synergistic, multi-level understanding of psychedelics: three systematic reviews and meta-analyses of their pharmacology, neuroimaging and phenomenology by Shinozuka, K, Jerotic, K, Mediano, P, Zhao, AT, Preller, KH, Carhart-Harris, R, Kringelbach, ML

“…Pharmacologically, LSD induces significantly more inositol phosphate formation at the 5-HT2A receptor than DMT and psilocin, yet there are no significant between-drug differences in the selectivity of psychedelics for the 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, or D2 receptors, relative to the 5-HT1A receptor. Our meta-analyses link DMT, LSD, and psilocybin to specific neural fingerprints at each level of analysis. …”

Development of a novel methodology for ascertaining scientific opinion and extent of agreement by Vickers, P, Adamo, L, Alfano, M, Clark, C, Cresto, E, Cui, H, Dang, H, Dellsén, F, Dupin, N, Gradowski, L, Graf, S, Guevara, A, Hallap, M, Hamilton, J, Hardey, M, Helm, P, Landrum, A, Levy, N, Machery, E, Mills, S, Muller, S, Sheppard, J, N. K., S, Slater, M

“…The novel methodology employed sees local coordinators, at each institution in the network, sending survey invitation emails internally to scientists at their home institution. The emails link to a ‘10 second survey’, where the participant is presented with a single statement to consider, and a standard five-point Likert scale. …”

Animal social networks are robust to changing association definitions by Chan, AHH, Dunning, J, Beck, KB, Burke, T, Chik, HYJ, Dunleavy, D, Evans, T, Ferreira, A, Fourie, B, Griffith, SC, Hillemann, F, Schroeder, J

“…The interconnecting links between individuals in an animal social network are often defined by discrete, directed behaviours, but where these are difficult to observe, a network link (edge) may instead be defined by individuals sharing a space at the same time, which can then be used to infer a social association. …”

Effect of Ba and Zn doping in Bi2Pb0.6Sr2Ca2Cu3Oδ superconductors using ac susceptibility measurements by Halim, S. A., Mohamed, S. B., Azhan, H., Khawaldeh, S.

“…The data of χ′ shows that coupling of the grains in Zn-doped samples are weaker than that of Ba-doped samples and hence it could be concluded that Zn-doped samples are dominated by the S-I-S type of weak links, whereas the Ba doped samples are dominated by the S-N-S weak links. …”
