Positional Information: Knowing Where You Are in a Limb
In the regenerating amphibian limb, positional information has traditionally been considered in terms of short-range cell-cell interactions, not long-range diffusion gradients. A molecule discovered in a differential screen of regenerating limbs turns out to be precisely such a cell surface component, the newt ortholog of mouse CD59.
متن کاملWhere Are You?
Two experiments revealed how nonexperts interpret visualizations of positional uncertainty on GPS-like displays and how the visual representation of uncertainty affects their judgments. Participants were shown maps with representations of their current location; locational uncertainty was visualized as either a circle (confidence interval) or a faded glyph (indicating the probability density fu...
متن کاملWhere Are You?
The ability of robots to quickly and accurately localize their neighbors is extremely important in swarm robotics. Prior approaches generally rely either on global information provided by GPS, beacons, and landmarks, or complex local information provided by vision systems. In this paper we provide a new technique, based on trilateration. This system is fully distributed, inexpensive, scalable, ...
متن کاملComparing Like with Like: The Power of Knowing Where You Are
Magnetic resonance imaging can now provide human brain images of structure, function, and connectivity with isotropic voxels smaller than one millimeter, and thus much smaller than the cortical thickness. This resolution, achievable in a scan time of less than 1 h, enables visualization of myeloarchitectural layer structure, intracortical variations in functional activity--recorded in changes i...
متن کاملBrugada syndrome: where are you?
Brugada syndrome is an arrhythmogenic disease characterized by a typical electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern with ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death related to polymorphic ventricular tachyarrhythmias or ventricular fibrillation. The cornerstone for the diagnosis of the syndrome is the presence of the typical type 1 ECG pattern charac...
