Norepinephrine stimulates glycogenolysis in astrocytes to fuel neurons with lactate

Pierre Magistretti, Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Daniel Keller, Jay Coggan, Corrado Cali

Although efficient compared to computers, the human brain utilizes energy at 10-fold the rate of other organs by mass. How the brain is supplied with sufficient on-demand energy to support its activity in the absence of neuronal storage capacity remains un ...

The optimum is not the goal: Capturing the decision space for the planning of new neighborhoods

François Maréchal, Jessen Page, Nils Christian Schüler, Sébastien Cajot

This article presents the development and application of a methodology that employs optimization not to seek the single or few optimal plan(s) but to provide planners with a systematic overview of their decision space. As urban development projects are not ...
