  • Dynamics of Visual Motion Processing

    Neuronal, Behavioral, and Computational Approaches

    Edited by Guillaume S. Masson, Uwe J. Ilg ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Motion processing is an essential piece of the complex brain machinery that allows us to reconstruct the 3D layout of objects in the environment, to break camouflage, to perform scene segmentation, to estimate the ego movement, and to control our action. Although motion perception and its neural basis have been a topic of intensive research and modeling the last two decades, recent experimental ... Read more

  • Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating Central Nervous System

    Edited by Wolfgang J. Streit ...
    Over the past decade, the study of microglial cells has gained increasing importance, in particular for those working in the fields of degeneration and regeneration. Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating CNS supports the assertion that understanding microglial biology could perhaps be pivotal for unraveling the pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie Alzheimer's disease, currently the most ...

  • Fundamentals of Applied Reservoir Engineering

    Appraisal, Economics and Optimization

    by Richard Wheaton ...
    Fundamentals of Applied Reservoir Engineering introduces early career reservoir engineers and those in other oil and gas disciplines to the fundamentals of reservoir engineering. Given that modern reservoir engineering is largely centered on numerical computer simulation and that reservoir engineers in the industry will likely spend much of their professional career building and running such ...

  • Oxidative Neural Injury

    Edited by Sigrid C. Veasey ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways ... Read more

  • Non-fibrillar Amyloidogenic Protein Assemblies - Common Cytotoxins Underlying Degenerative Diseases

    Edited by Farid Rahimi, Gal Bitan ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Amyloid-forming proteins are implicated in over 30 human diseases. The proteins involved in each disease have unrelated sequences and dissimilar native structures, but they all undergo conformational alterations to form fibrillar polymers. The fibrillar assemblies accumulate progressively into disease-specific lesions in vivo. Substantial evidence suggests these lesions are the end state of ... Read more

  • Global Positioning System

    Theory and Practice

    by Herbert Lichtenegger, Bernhard Hofmann-Wellenhof, James Collins ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is dedicated to Dr. Benjamin William Remondi for many reasons. The project of writing a Global Positioning System (GPS) book was con ceived in April 1988 at a GPS meeting in Darmstadt, Germany. Dr. Remondi discussed with me the need for an additional GPS textbook and suggested a possible joint effort. In 1989, I was willing to commit myself to such a project. Unfortunately, the timing ...

  • Tracking Environmental Change Using Lake Sediments

    Data Handling and Numerical Techniques

    Edited by André F. Lotter, Steve Juggins, John P. Smol, H. John B. Birks ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Numerical and statistical methods have rapidly become part of a palaeolimnologist’s tool-kit. They are used to explore and summarise complex data, reconstruct past environmental variables from fossil assemblages, and test competing hypotheses about the causes of observed changes in lake biota through history. This book brings together a wide array of numerical and statistical techniques currently ... Read more

  • 5-HT2A Receptors in the Central Nervous System

    Edited by Bruno P. Guiard, Giuseppe Di Giovanni ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    5-HT2A receptors are G-protein coupled receptors that are widely distributed throughout the brain, most notably on neuronal and glial cells. 5-HT2A receptors have been implicated in various central physiological functions including mood regulation, memory, sleep, nociception, eating, and reward behaviors, and they are also believed to control the cardiovascular system. This book provides a ... Read more
