Transitive inference (TI) refers to inferences on relations between items based on other known relations of those items. Using a paradigm where participants first learn a series of four overlapping pairs that constitute ...

In addition to cancer cells, solid tumors consist of a variety of cell types and tissues defining a complex microenvironment that influences disease progression and response to therapy. To fully characterize and probe the ...

When viewed under the microscope, biological tissues reveal an exquisite microarchitecture. These complex patterns arise during development, as cells interact with a multitude of chemical and mechanical cues in the surrounding ...

Biological membranes form transient, conductive pores in response to elevated transmembrane voltage, a phenomenon termed electroporation. These pores facilitate electrical and molecular transport across cell membranes that ...

The medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) is a brainstem-based neural feedback circuit by which mammals adaptively adjust the gain of their ears in response to changing environmental conditions. Activating the reflex with ...

Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) are electrical signals recorded from the skin overlying skeletal muscles of the head and neck in response to high-intensity acoustic stimuli. VEMPs have been observed in stimulus ...

Spectrally encoded confocal microscopy (SECM) is a technique that facilitates the incorporation of confocal microscopy into small, portable clinical instruments. This would allow in vivo evaluation of cellular and sub-cellular ...
