A European perspective on alternatives to animal testing for environmental hazard identification and risk assessment

Tests with vertebrates are an integral part of environmental hazard identification and risk assessment of chemicals, plant protection products, pharmaceuticals, biocides, feed additives and effluents. These tests raise ethical and economic concerns and are ...

Big brother is watching you: eavesdropping to resolve family conflicts

Christof Faller

Adult animals can eavesdrop on behavioral interactions between potential opponents to assess their competitive ability and motivation to contest resources without interacting directly with them. Surprisingly, eavesdropping is not yet considered as an impor ...

Recovery of the default mode network after demanding neurofeedback training occurs in spatio-temporally segregated subnetworks

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Rotem Roza Kopel

The default mode (DM) network is a major large-scale cerebral network that can be identified with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during resting state. Most studies consider functional connectivity networks as stationary phenomena. Consequentl ...

Vulnerability of conditional NCAM-deficient mice to develop stress-induced behavioral alterations

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Reto Bisaz

Previous studies in rodents showed that chronic stress induces structural and functional alterations in several brain regions, including shrinkage of the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex, which are accompanied by cognitive and emotional disturbances. ...

Locomotion studies and modeling of the long-tailed lizard Takydromus sexlineatus

Auke Ijspeert, Konstantinos Karakasiliotis

Morphology is an important factor in locomotion. It may guide the control strategies that an animal or a robot uses for efficient locomotion. In this paper we try to understand the locomotion strategies of a lizard with a distinctive feature, the long-tail ...

Perceptual learning of motion discrimination by mental imagery

Michael Herzog, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia, Laura Bamert

Perceptual learning can occur when stimuli are only imagined, i.e., without proper stimulus presentation. For example, perceptual learning improved bisection discrimination when only the two outer lines of the bisection stimulus were presented and the cent ...

The effects of circadian phase, time awake, and imposed sleep restriction on performing complex visual tasks: Evidence from comparative visual search

Mirjam Münch

Cognitive performance not only differs between individuals, but also varies within them, influenced by factors that include sleep-wakefulness and biological time of day (circadian phase). Previous studies have shown that both factors influence accuracy rat ...

When the ARM weakly consistent memory model meets speculation: is it necessary?

Tao-Chun Lee, Marc-Alexandre Boéchat

Aggressive memory-level-parallelism techniques have provided significant performance gain in Distributed Share Memory Designs. In this paper, we reevaluate speculative memory ordering in the context of Chip Multi-Processors (CMPs) and power-limited computa ...

Increased sensory evidence reverses nonconscious priming during crowding

Nathan Quentin Faivre

Sensory adaptation reflects the fact that the responsiveness of a perceptual system changes after the processing of a specific stimulus. Two manifestations of this property have been used in order to infer the mechanisms underlying vision: priming, in whic ...
