Scientists at MIT, the National Oceanographic Center in the UK and elsewhere report that the color of the oceans has changed dramatically over the past 20 years, and that this global trend may be a consequence of the change. anthropogenic climate change. In a study appearing today in Nature, The team writes that they have … Leer más
Adiponectin, a hormone secreted by adipose tissue, plays a doubly important role in maintaining the function of the pancreas: in lean people, it protects beta cells, which make insulin, and in obese people obesity, it reverses adipose tissue damage. The discovery was made by researchers at the Institute of Chemistry of the University of São … Leer más
Those experiences that leave traces in brain connectivity have long been known, but a pioneering study by researchers at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) and the University of Technology TUD Dresden now shows just how massive these impacts really are. The findings in mice provide unprecedented insights into the complexity of large-scale neural … Leer más
We use our locomotor learning to teach ourselves how to run, get a drink, and walk so we can get around the world. But old age or illness can impair our ability to develop motor skills. Scientists examining the effects of supplemental oxygen on motor learning have discovered a potentially effective method to help people … Leer más
Multi-object tracking (MOT) is a complex system consisting of several functional components, such as detection, visualization, and association. Association is in the final stages of the MOT process and is often seen as a core issue, aimed at connecting bounding boxes with existing small tracks. The linkage module makes inferences according to physical features, motion … Leer más
The brain’s «circuit» metaphor is as indisputable as it is familiar: Neurons make direct physical connections to create functional networks, such as to store memories. or create thoughts. But the metaphor is also incomplete. What drives these circuits and networks to come together? New evidence suggests that at least some of this coordination comes from … Leer más
