  1. 1. Body patterning and cognition in cephalopods - a literature review

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Georgina Chu; [2023]
    Keywords : cephalopods; octopus; body patterning; colour alteration; chromatophores; pigment cells; cognition; learning and memory;

    Abstract : Cephalopods are a valuable model for studying the evolution of cognition due to their distinctive brain structure, organisation, and connectivity patterns compared to vertebrates. The development of large brains and behavioural complexities are believed to be triggered by evolutionary pressures stemming from factors like heightened predation, more demanding foraging conditions, and intense mating competition.

  3. 2. TMS stimulus-response asymmetry in lower limbs : Difference in stimulated muscles between dominant and non-dominant leg

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Adna Pivac; [2022]
    Keywords : lower limbs; motor evoked potential; motor cortex; stimulus-response asymmetry; transcranial magnetic stimulation;

    Abstract : Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a 37-year-old non-invasive tool and can be used for diagnostic, therapeutics, and research purposes. In research, TMS is mostly used to stimulate the motor cortex, resulting in a neuroelectric excitatory response called a motor evoked potential (MEP). READ MORE

  4. 3. Feature extraction with self-supervised learning on eye-tracking data from Parkinson’s patients and healthy individuals

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Leo Bergman; [2022]
    Keywords : Eye-tracking; Representation learning; Self-supervised learning; Parkinson’s disease; Feature extraction; Clustering analysis; Ögonspårning; Särdragsextraktion; Parkinsonssjukdom; Representationsinlärning; Maskininlärning; Klustring;

    Abstract : Eye-tracking is a method for monitoring and measuring eye movements. The technology has had a significant impact so far and new application areas are emerging. Today, the technology is used in the gaming industry, health industry, self-driving cars, and not least in medicine. READ MORE

  5. 4. Patologi och patogenes vid förvärvad ekvin polyneuropati : i förhållande till andra perifera nervsjukdomar hos häst och andra djurslag

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Anna Sundell; [2017]
    Keywords : polyneuropati; perifer neuropati; förvärvad neuropati;

    Abstract : Nervcellen är kroppens mest känsliga celltyp för bland annat trauma och metabola förändringar. Skador kan uppstå av ett flertal orsaker. Följder av perifera nervskador kan vara av olika allvarlighetsgrad och ibland kan känsel eller motorik förloras. READ MORE

  6. 5. Explorative Analysis and Data Mining in Big Neural Data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Jennifer Linge; [2015]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Most motor actions are carried out by many neurons acting together in different areas of the brain. Recently, techniques have been developed and increasingly used that allow simultaneous recordings of the activity from a large number of neurons over time ranges as long as several weeks. READ MORE
