Secondary Fast Breakdown in Narrow Bipolar Events

Marcos Rubinstein, Dongshuai Li

The physical mechanism of Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) has been studied for decades but it still holds many mysteries. Recent observations indicate that the fast breakdown discharges that produce NBEs sometimes contain a secondary fast breakdown that propa ...

Title: "Labels Matter: Is it stress or is it Trauma?"

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

In neuroscience, the term 'Stress' has a negative connotation because of its potential to trigger or exacerbate psychopathologies. Yet in the face of exposure to stress, the more common reaction to stress is resilience, indicating that resilience is the ru ...
