A hierarchical Krylov-Bayes iterative inverse solver for MEG with physiological preconditioning

Magnetoencephalopgraphy (MEG) is a non-invasive functional imaging modality for mapping cerebral electromagnetic activity from measurements of the weak magnetic field that it generates. It is well known that the MEG inverse problem, i.e. the problem of identifying electric currents from the induced…

Comics&Science in Crystallography

The role of comics in science communications has been subject of a number of recent papers. While some debate on an accepted definition of what constitutes a science comics is still ongoing, the role of comics in science outreach is now universally recognized. [1] Here we present the Comics&…

Massive-scale RNA-Seq experiments in human genetic diseases

Assessment of MIPAS ESA V7 products and first verification of MIPAS ESA V8 products

MIPAS on ENVISAT performed almost continuous measurements of atmospheric composition for approximately 10 years, from June 2002 to April 2012. ESA processor, based on the algorithm ORM (Optimized Retrieval Model), originally designed for the Near Real Time analysis and developed by an European…

Modelling drug release from composite capsules and multi-layer systems

Drug releasing capsules and droplets are largely used in biomedical applications. Such vehicles consist of a drug-loaded core surrounded by a thin semi-permeable layer. Diffusion is by far the dominant mechanism in drug delivery, beside other physico-chemical factors, such as osmosis, drug…

Evaluation of a dimension-reduction-based statistical technique for Temperature, Water Vapour and Ozone retrievals from IASI radiances

Large-scale brain integration patterns differ in focused-attention and open-monitoring meditation

An important process underlying meditation and its benefits involves the regulation of attention. Although the two main meditation categories - open-monitoring meditation (OMM) and focused-attention meditation (FAM) - are associated with different benefits and attentional processes, direct…

An MEG investigation of the brain dynamics mediating Focused-Attention andOpen-Monitoring Meditation

The phenomenologyand reported effects of meditation vary according to the technique practiced.While numerous studies have explored the cerebral mechanisms involved inmeditation, little research provides direct comparisons between the neuronalnetwork dynamics involved in different meditation…
