Sequential processing of lexical, grammatical, and phonological information within Broca's area.

14 Oct 2009 Words, grammar, and phonology are linguistically distinct, yet their neural substrates are difficult to distinguish in macroscopic brain regions. We investigated whether they can be separated in time and space at the circuit level using intracranial ... Read more...

Melanocyte-like cells in the heart and pulmonary veins contribute to atrial arrhythmia triggers.

10 Oct 2009 Atrial fibrillation is the most common clinical cardiac arrhythmia. It is often initiated by ectopic beats arising from the pulmonary veins and atrium, but the source and mechanism of these beats remains unclear. The melanin synthesis enzyme ... Read more...

Daily electrical silencing in the mammalian circadian clock.

7 Oct 2009 Neurons in the brain's suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCNs), which control the timing of daily rhythms, are thought to encode time of day by changing their firing frequency, with high rates during the day and lower rates at night. Some SCN neurons express ... Read more...
