Pro-neurogenesis therapy rescues hippocampal-mediated learning and memory deficits in the ts65dn mouse model of Down syndrome

Down syndrome (DS) is the most frequent cause of mental retardation in adults and children. It has been proposed that cognitive disabilities associated with DS may be ascribed to neurogenesis impairment during both development and adulthood. This view is s ...

The Role of Shared-Control in BCI-based Telepresence

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Robert Leeb, Serafeim Perdikis, Luca Tonin, Michele Tavella

This paper discusses and evaluates the role of shared control approach in a BCI-based telepresence framework. Driving a mobile device by using human brain signals might improve the quality of life of people suffering from severely physical disabilities. By ...

Neurogenesis as therapeutic target to rescue hippocampal-mediated learning and memory deficits in a mouse model of Down syndrome

Diego Ghezzi

Down syndrome (DS) is the most frequent cause of cognitive disability in children and adults. It has been reported that defects in neurogenesis occur both during development and adulthood and possibly underlie cognitive dysfunction associated with DS. Rece ...

Coilin-dependent snRNP assembly is essential for zebrafish embryogenesis

Andrew Charles Oates

Spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), comprised of small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) in complex with snRNP-specific proteins, are essential for pre-mRNA splicing. Coilin is not a snRNP protein but concentrates snRNPs and their assembly intermed ...

Error-related EEG potentials in brain-computer interfaces

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Pierre Ferrez

People with severe motor disabilities (spinal cord injury (SCI), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), etc.) but with intact brain functions are somehow prisoners of their own body. They need alternative ways of communication and control to interact with th ...
