Transcranial ultrasound is an essential tool for monitoring patients with various neurological conditions. Although it is commonly used in a protocolized fashion in consultative studies, the brain has been overlooked in many protocols utilizing point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS). This study proposes a PoCUS image acquisition protocol.

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)...

We present three new methods to study gustatory coding. Using a simple animal, the moth Manduca sexta (Manduca), we describe a dissection protocol, the use of extracellular tetrodes to record the activity of multiple gustatory receptor neurons, and a system for delivering and monitoring precisely timed pulses of tastants.

Source: Laboratory of Jonathan Flombaum—Johns Hopkins University Human color vision is impressive. People with normal color vision can tell apart millions of individual hues. Most amazingly, this ability is achieved with fairly simple hardware. Part of the power of human color vision comes from a clever bit of engineering in the human brain. There, color perception relies on what is known as an 'opponent system.' This means that the presence of one kind of stimulus is treated as evidence for...

Training Synesthetic Letter-color Associations by Reading in Color

2014
Reading in color is a new method for training letter-color associations that are typically found only in grapheme-color synesthetes. It involves an implicit form of training that has potential for long-term associative training methods because the training is a byproduct of reading and any text can be colored.

The interval scheme determines how precisely temporal order can be read along a trajectory or image. Each interval receives a corresponding color, so adjacent color regions represent successive portions of the recording, while separated regions can reveal pauses, reversals, or repeated movement patterns. Consistent interval definitions also make different recordings easier to compare.
The color sequence adds temporal order to the spatial path, allowing viewers to distinguish where movement began, how it progressed, and whether it paused or repeated. Direction becomes easier to follow because successive colors trace the path in order. This combination helps separate similar-looking trajectories that differ in timing or sequence.
Neuroscience recordings may contain changes in animal behavior, neural structures, or cellular movements that are difficult to interpret from position alone. Color-coded time-motion links each spatial location with a point in the recording sequence. That connection can clarify when a movement occurred relative to other locations and support direct comparison of complex time-resolved observations.
First, divide the recording into defined time intervals. Next, assign a color to each successive interval and preserve that order in the color sequence. Finally, overlay the colors on the relevant trajectory, image, or motion path. The completed visualization can then be examined for direction, pauses, repeated patterns, and spatial relationships.
Researchers can use the approach when they need to examine movement over time in animal behavior, neural structures, or cellular activity. It is especially useful when both location and sequence matter, because the visualization presents them together rather than treating the recording as only a spatial image or only a time series.
The method supports quantitative analysis by organizing time-resolved movement into a visually traceable sequence. It also makes complex observations easier to compare across trajectories, images, or motion paths. Visible differences in direction, timing, pauses, and repetition can help researchers communicate patterns that may be difficult to convey through an unannotated recording alone.
