Protein Networks02:26

Protein Networks

4.5K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Network Covalent Solids

16.1K
Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...

Simplified Synchronous Machine Model

759
The Synchronous Machine Model is a fundamental tool in analyzing and ensuring the transient stability of power systems. This model simplifies the representation of a synchronous machine under balanced three-phase positive-sequence conditions, assuming constant excitation and ignoring losses and saturation. The model is pivotal for understanding the behavior of synchronous generators connected to a power grid, particularly during transient events.
In this model, each generator is connected to a...

Frequency-dependent Selection01:21

Frequency-dependent Selection

23.3K
When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.

Drug Dependence01:17

Drug Dependence

1.6K
Medications are typically administered to achieve therapeutic effects. Some drugs can modify an individual's mood and perception, frequently resulting in various enjoyable experiences. However, this can result in drug dependency, a condition marked by continuous drug use despite potential negative consequences. Drug dependency primarily falls into two categories: psychological and physical dependence. Psychological dependence occurs when the pleasurable feelings induced by the drug...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Network Science

Background:

  • Mammalian brain's complex structural connectivity underlies versatile neural computations.
  • Previous studies often analyzed small subsystems or binarized, spatially-uninformed coarse connectivity.
  • Limited understanding exists regarding the spatial embedding of detailed whole-brain connectivity and its functional impact.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze how spatially-constrained neural connectivity shapes brain dynamics synchronization at the mesoscopic level.
  • To investigate the spatial dependence of whole-brain network topology.
  • To elucidate the functional implications of spatial embedding in brain connectivity.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas from viral tracing experiments.
  • Employed a system of coupled phase oscillators on a mesoscopic mammalian whole-brain network.
  • Developed a new mapping algorithm to analyze spatially-constrained connectivity.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated significant spatial dependence in brain connectivity, following a power law (closer regions more connected).
  • Identified residual, stronger-than-predicted connections deviating from the power-law fit.
  • Showed these residual connections promote rapid transitions between partial and global synchronization.

Conclusions:

  • Spatial embedding of detailed brain connectivity is crucial for understanding neural dynamics.
  • Specific long-range connections (residuals) facilitate swift switching between brain states.
  • Network complexity, influenced by spatial connectivity, may link to the brain's computational flexibility.
