The analogy to paediatric growth charts is not meant to imply that brain charts are immediately suitable for benchmarking or quantitative diagnosis of individual patients in clinical practice. Even for traditional anthropometric growth charts (height, weight and BMI), there are still important caveats ...
2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. As measured by the autocorrelation window (ACW) in resting state, lower-order unimodal sensory regions—the primary visual cortex, for example—shows short timescales compared to higher-order transmodal regions like the default-mode network (DMN)2,3,4,5,6,7,...
To counter this temptation, teachers should remind students that spatial association is like region, sequence, enclosure, or analogy—it is just one of several different ways of organizing and analyzing geographic information. Sample research questions: What in-home, in-school, or in-community pairs...
For this, the forest signals will be organized according to, for instance—in analogy with musical patterns—rhythmic, “melodic”, “timbre”, and “harmonic” characteristics of electrochemical waves. Each of these compositional arrangements will be transmitted to a brain organoid region, to induce...
It made computing chips smaller and smaller until there was a powerful computer in everyone’s pocket. Each innovation was like a new truckload of spinach for the Human Colossus. But today, the Human Colossus has its eyes set on an even bigger idea than more spinach. Computers have been a...
(Fig.4b). We can take the structure of DNA as an analogy. This complex structure is created from only four bases of adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine. If a species has a high number of regions with different INT, their degree of possible interaction through inter-regional functional ...
The analogy to the automatic transfer from mid-course to terminal guidance in the control mechanism of a missile is a close one. In the missile, shift from one pattern of behavior to the other is triggered by the appearance of a radar target echo in the input data. In the animal, change...
with treatment providers working in a range of different professions in Victoria, Australia, we shed light on why neuroscience is at times discussed, but on other occasions avoided, and also how different methods are employed when discussing the brain (including through narrative accounts or analogy...
daydreams or introspects, generates ideas under the supervision of the “executive control network” in the brain’s frontal lobes, which directs the kinds of ideas the default-mode network produces. Kounios likened it to the analogy of a person “supervising” a TV by picking the movie it ...
And so the first reaction to that is, “No, I don't want there to be this perpetual war going on in my brain.” [00:21:10] David Eagleman: But I, I think that's the best model to explain, uh, the data, right? So right. Exactly. The, the analogy of a forest is, is the...
