AXON MORPHOLOGY AND INTRINSIC CELLULAR PROPERTIES DETERMINE REPETITIVE TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION THRESHOLD FOR PLASTICITY

Axon morphology and intrinsic cellular properties determine repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation threshold for plasticity

IntroductionRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a widely used therapeutic tool in neurology and psychiatry, but its cellular and molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.Standardizing stimulus parameters, specifically electric field strength, is crucial in experimental and clinical settings.It enables meaningful comparisons

Kinesthetic imagery of musical performance

Musicians use different kinds of imagery.This review focuses on kinesthetic imagery, which has been shown to be an effective complement to Cuticle Oil actively playing an instrument.However, experience in actual movement performance seems to be a requirement for a recruitment of those brain areas representing movement ideation during imagery.An int

Interpreting Mobile and Handheld Air Sensor Readings in Relation to Air Quality Standards and Health Effect Reference Values: Tackling the Challenges

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other federal agencies face a number of challenges in interpreting and reconciling short-duration (seconds to minutes) readings from mobile and handheld air sensors with the longer duration averages (hours to days) associated with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for the criteria po
