    Possible Strategies for Using Sleep to Improve Episodic Memory in the Face of Overlap

    It is not known what biological benefits may derive from information handling during sleep. Several facts about sleep suggest that information handling does take place, in different fashions in the two princip...

    Magnetic Observation of Spreading Cortical Depression in Anaesthetized Rabbits

    Spreading depression (SD) is a profound disturbance of the environment of brain cells that occurs as a stereotyped response to several types of strong stimulation or trauma (for reviews see e.g. Bures et al., ...

    Movement of Potassium into Glial Cells in the Retina of the Drone, Apis mellifera, During Photostimulation

    Experiments on the drone retina have led to direct demonstrations of metabolic and ionic interactions between glial cells and sensory neurons. The tissue is composed of two essentially uniform populations of c...
