The bull terrier is prone to genetic conditions, a problem common in pure-bred dogs. There are conditions that specifically affect this breed of dogs. One of the most common ones is linked to their “Roman nose”. The shape of the bull terrier's head may cause their teeth not to line ...
Path integration is a powerful navigational mechanism whereby individuals continuously update their distance and angular vector of movement to calculate their position in relation to their departure location, allowing them to return along the most direct
Discussion: Our results indicate that some, but not all, hippocampal memory functions are impaired in schizophrenia. Impaired memory function in schizophrenia subjects (i.e., retrieval after deep encoding and novelty detection) was associated with decreased hippocampal recruitment. Normal memory function ...
What Human-Computer Con-fluence Can Offer to Health CareAbstract: In this chapter we claim that the structuration, augmentation and replace-ment of bodily self-consciousness is at the heart of the research in Human Computer Confluence, requiring knowledge from both cognitive/social sciences and advan...
Byjayawardene— On Sep 18, 2010 My husband has had brain surgery in June this year and the doctors say that he has only 50 percent chance of recovery since his brain stem is badly damaged. It is now almost three and a half months and he is still unconscious. We have taken him home ...
IfC. elegansare considered sentient, we asked what can be learned from the worm connectome about the neural architecture generating subjective experience? The small, well-defined nervous system of the nematode make this animal an excellent model organism for studying subjective experience. Indeed, it ...
brain stem houses the structures that are responsible for the unconscious regulation of the body such as wakefulness, heart and lung functions, hunger, temperature control, and swallowing. The cerebellum is located beneath and behind the cerebrum and is responsible for posture, balance, and ...

It is concluded that interoceptive accuracy cannot be generalized across modalities; thus, no single modality should be used as the indicator of general interoceptive ability. Moreover, affective evaluation plays a substantial role in the perception for...

SARS-CoV-2 can invade the CNS in various ways. The first is through the nasal cavity, where the virus connects with the ACE-2 receptors of the olfactory epithelium, invades its nerves, and eventually reaches the brainstem through the pathway of the olfactory tract, as indicated by an autopsy...
