    Sammanfattning : The success or failure of many organisms to respond to the challenges of habitat destruction and a warming climate lies in the ability of plant species to disperse between isolated habitats or to migrate to new ranges. European semi-natural grasslands represent one of the world's most species-rich habitats at small scales, but agricultural intensification during the 20th century has meant that many plant species are left only on small fragments of former habitat.

  2. 2. The architecture of the aging brain : functional reorganization, structural changes, and the role of dopamine receptors

    Författare :Robin Pedersen; Alireza Salami; Anna Rieckmann; Anders Wåhlin; Lars Nyberg; Roser Sala-Llonch; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; brain architecture; functional connectivity; dopamine; aging; cognition; memory; functional magnetic resonance imaging; positron emission tomography; graph theory; Laplacian eigenmapping; gradient;

    Sammanfattning : Aging is associated with reorganization of functional brain architecture, potentially leading tocognitive decline in older age. However, the mechanisms responsible for alterations in functionalbrain architecture remain poorly understood. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Distributed connectivity algorithms

    Författare :Esther Jennings; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dependable Communication and Computation Systems; Kommunikations- och beräkningssystem;

    Sammanfattning : The goal of this research is to design efficient distributed algorithms which execute on an arbitrary network to recognize special connectivity structures within that network. In some cases, we also consider the maintenance of these special structures in dynamically changing networks. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Neurocognitive Foundations of Child and Adult Number Processing : Neural Correlates and Functional Circuits Across Typical Development

    Författare :Mikael Skagenholt; Ulf Träff; Kenny Skagerlund; Karin Kucian; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The ability to mentally represent the exact numerosity of up to four perceived objects, as well as approximately estimating differences in numerical magnitude, appears to constitute a core-cognitive number sense. Symbolic representations of number (e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 5. CELL REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR PARKINSON’S DISEASE: The importance of neuronal subtype, cell source and connectivity for functional recovery

    Författare :Shane Grealish; Neurobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mouse behaviour; 6-hydroxydopamine; human embryonic stem cells; fetal tissue; connectivity; midbrain dopamine neuron subtype; cell transplantation; Parkinson’s disease;

    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by motor deficits such as slowness in movement, difficulty in initiating movement and tremor at rest. The cause of these motor symptoms is the selective loss of mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDA) neurons, located in the substantia nigra (SN). LÄS MER
