  1. 1. Reaching for Excellence? : Does training improve motor abilities and cause cascading effects in the visual attention and social perception domain?

    Author : Linda van den Berg; Gustaf Gredebäck; Pär Nyström; Erik Domellöf; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Early Motor Training; Sticky Mittens; Infants; Motor Development; Reaching; Grasping; Social Perception; Visual Attention; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : claimed in the last 20 years. Being able to reach for objects provides infants with an interactive interface with their environment. After reach onset, objects can be explored closer to the face and manipulated. Social perception abilities and visual attention have both been found to relate to motor development. READ MORE

  2. 2. Reaching Kinetic Selectivities : In Pursuing Novel Ternary Oxide Coatings, and Beyond

    Author : Sebastian Öhman; Mats Boman; Tobias Törndahl; Maarit Karppinen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CVD; coatings; kinetics; crystallization; nucleation; diffusionless; Al2TiO5; oxides; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : Kinetically driven synthesis pathways have the potential to allow new ways to develop materials and phases with much-improved properties. This particularly concerns metastable and multicomponent phases that require a selective kinetic targeting during the synthesis to circumvent the formation of thermodynamically stable products.

  3. 3. Mobility, Sitting Posture and Reaching Movements in Children with Myelomeningocele

    Author : Simone Norrlin; Lennart von Wendt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pediatrics; myelomeningocele; PEDI; mobility; sitting posture; reaching; motor adaptation; Pediatrik; Paediatric medicine; Pediatrisk medicin; pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Abstract : Children with myelomeningocele (MMC) usually have problems with daily life activities, but the background to their problems is not altogether obvious. An understanding of the possible causes of activity problems is a prerequisite for the effectiveness of physical therapy. READ MORE

  4. 4. Programming and updaing of reaching movements

    Author : Sergei Perfiliev; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Reaching movements; motor cortex; central command; neuronal recording; trajectory updating; descending pathways; spinal cord lesions;

    Abstract : Neuronal activity in the motor cortex (area 4) was recorded during reaching movements in cats, trained to perform target-reaching in response to a tone burst. Out of 350 task related neurones 12% generated short latency (20?110 ms) sensory responses to the cue triggering the reaching movement. READ MORE

  5. 5. Reaching at Sustainable Development : Lean in the Public Sector

    Author : Pernilla Lindskog; Jörgen Eklund; Kasper Edwards; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Healthcare; participation; ownership; learning; clarity; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Abstract : The concept of sustainable development is commonly used worldwide. In the public sector, characterized by a rationalization focus, conclusions about the sustainability of lean production (lean), as a management concept for organizational change, are contradictory. READ MORE
