Protein-protein Interfaces02:04

Protein-protein Interfaces

14.7K
Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a...

Anatomy of the Ear

Auditory sensation, commonly called hearing, involves the transformation of sonic waves into neural impulses facilitated by the structures of the auditory organ. The prominent, flesh-like structure on the side of the head, called the auricle, directs sound waves towards the auditory canal. The auricle is often mislabeled as the pinna, a term more aligned with mobile structures like a feline's external ear. The auditory canal penetrates the cranium via the external auditory meatus of the...

Healthcare Associated Infections I: Iatrogenic, Exogenic and Endogenic

5.6K
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) occur in a healthcare facility while a person receives care for another ailment. This category also includes work-related infections among healthcare staff.
HAIs significantly increase the cost of health care. Extended stays in healthcare institutions, increased disability, increased costs of medications, including specialized antibiotics, and prolonged recovery times add to the patient's expenses and the healthcare institution and funding bodies.

As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

Development of the Lymphatic System01:15

Development of the Lymphatic System

2.1K
The development of lymphatic tissues and vessels in embryonic life begins around the fifth week. These structures originate from the mesoderm layer, with lymph sacs emerging from developing veins.
The first lymph sacs to form are the paired jugular lymph sacs located at the junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins. From these sacs, lymphatic capillary plexuses extend to the thorax, upper limbs, neck, and head, eventually forming lymphatic vessels. Each jugular lymph sac maintains a...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Existing brain-computer interface (BCI) research using ear electroencephalography (ear-EEG) primarily relies on exogenous paradigms triggered by external stimuli.
  • There is a need to explore endogenous paradigms, which utilize self-modulated brain activity, for more versatile BCI applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the feasibility of using ear-EEG for developing an endogenous BCI system.
  • To assess the reliability of ear-EEG signals compared to traditional scalp-EEG during cognitive tasks.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted preliminary and main experiments measuring EEG from both scalp and ear locations.
  • Subjects performed tasks involving eyes-open/closed states and cognitive challenges like mental arithmetic (MA) and light cognitive (LC) tasks.
  • Analyzed brain activity across four regions of interest (ROIs): frontal, central, occipital, and ear area.

Main Results:

  • Preliminary experiment: Alpha activity increase in the ear area during eyes-closed tasks was comparable to other ROIs.
  • Main experiment: Similar event-related (de)synchronization (ERD/ERS) patterns were observed across all ROIs during MA and LC tasks.
  • Classification accuracy for distinguishing between MA and LC tasks exceeded 70% in all ROIs, including the ear area.

Conclusions:

  • Ear-EEG is a reliable measure for detecting brain activity modulated by cognitive tasks.
  • Ear-EEG can be effectively utilized for developing endogenous BCI systems, expanding its practical applications beyond exogenous paradigms.
