Euripides Unbound

Euripides' Second Thoughts

A Literary Study of Euripides’ Phoinissai

Exocytosis unbound.

The accepted theory of vesicular release of neurotransmitter posits that only a single vesicle per synapse can fuse with the membrane following action potential invasion, and this exocytotic event is limited to the ultrastructurally defined presynaptic active zone. Neither of these dictums is universally true. At certain synapses, more than a single vesicle can be released per action potential,...

Memory traces unbound.

The idea that new memories are initially 'labile' and sensitive to disruption before becoming permanently stored in the wiring of the brain has been dogma for >100 years. Recently, we have revisited the hypothesis that reactivation of a consolidated memory can return it to a labile, sensitive state - in which it can be modified, strengthened, changed or even erased! The data generated from some...

Turing Unbound: Transfinite Computation

Till thine Infinity shall be A robe of envenomed agony; And thine Omnipotence a crown of pain, To cling like burning gold round thy dissolving brain. 1 Introduction 2 To the ω'th station! 3 Scope of some other models: the extent of computation in Malament-Hogarth spacetimes. Case Studies: a) Etesi-Németi models in Kerr spacetimes; b) Hogarth's models more abstractly considered.
