Using the functional mapping model, the genetic effect of a QTL on development timing — for example, the timing of maximum growth rate — can be tested 24. Towards a picture of genetic ...

Biologists at Baylor College of Medicine have published the largest functional ... Despite the tiny sample area of the mouse brain, the researchers note that the map's stunning complexity ...

Finally, functional maps derived from fMRI data can be influenced by various confounding factors. For example, spatial specificity of the functional connectivity maps can be influenced by the ...

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain ... the result is the largest wiring diagram and functional map of the brain to date, containing more than 200,000 cells, four kilometers ...

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from 'The Matrix', scientists have unveiled the most detailed functional brain map ever, charting connections between 84,000 neurons across 500 million synapses ...

In retinotopic mapping, researchers can identify functional regions by engineering neurons to flash when they become electrically active (and show changes in calcium) in response to a particular ...
