2. Regulation of Breathing under Different Pulmonary Conditions
Abstract : The breathing pattern of preterm infants is immature and is associated with a variety of reflexes. In a patient on the ventilator these reflexes interfere with spontaneous breathing. A better understanding of the immature control of breathing could lead to further improvements in ventilatory techniques. READ MORE

5. Aminergic regulation of neuronal synchrony in the hippocampus
Abstract : Background: Gamma oscillations (25-80 Hz) are physiological electric activity patterns, prevalent in the brain, which are associated with attention, working memory, sensory perception, long-term memory encoding and recall. Importantly, in mental illnesses featuring cognitive disturbances (such as Schizophrenia or Alzheimer’s disease) there are concomitant disturbances of gamma oscillations. READ MORE
