Twitching in Sensorimotor Development from Sleeping Rats to Robots
It is still not known how the ‘rudimentary’ movements of fetuses and infants are transformed into the coordinated, flexible and adaptive movements of adults. In addressing this important issue, we consider a behavior that has been perennially viewed as a f ...
Elsevier2013Dual Eye-Tracking: Lessons Learnt
Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann, Kshitij Sharma
Dual eye-tracking (DUET) is at the confluents of cognitive (and social) psychology and computer science. DUET is a novel methodology to explore the socio-cognitive processes underlying collaboration. The basic aims of DUET are to better understand, through ...
2013Genes Involved in the Astrocyte-Neuron Lactate Shuttle (ANLS) Are Specifically Regulated in Cortical Astrocytes Following Sleep Deprivation in Mice
Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Luc Martin, Jean-Marie Petit, Joël Gyger, Sophie Burlet Godinot
Study Objectives: There is growing evidence indicating that in order to meet the neuronal energy demands, astrocytes provide lactate as an energy substrate for neurons through a mechanism called "astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle" (ANLS). Since neuronal act ...
American Academy of Sleep Medicine2013Sleep paralysis in narcolepsy: more than just a motor dissociative phenomenon?
Sleep paralyses are viewed as pure motor phenomena featured by a dissociated state in which REM-related muscle atonia coexists with a wakefulness state of full consciousness. We present a 59-year-old man diagnosed with narcolepsy experiencing sleep paralys ...
2012Challenging the sleep homeostat: Sleep in depression is not premature aging
Objectives: The close relationship between major depression and sleep disturbances led to the hypothesis of a deficiency in homeostatic sleep pressure in depression (S-deficiency hypothesis). Many observed changes of sleep characteristics in depression are ...
Elsevier2012The effects of circadian phase, time awake, and imposed sleep restriction on performing complex visual tasks: Evidence from comparative visual search
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 ...
Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology2012NoRSE: noise reduction and state evaluator for high-frequency single event traces
Summary: NoRSE was developed to analyze high-frequency datasets collected from multistate, dynamic expts., such as mol. adsorption and desorption onto carbon nanotubes. As technol. improves sampling frequency, these stochastic datasets become increasingly ...
