In a recent paper, Shawn Green and Daphne Bavelier show that playing an action video game markedly improved subjects performance on a range of visual skills related to detecting objects in briefly flashed displays. This is noteworthy as previous studies on perceptual learning, which have commonly focused on well-controlled and rather abstract tasks, found little transfer of learning to novel st...

Adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase inhibition testing provides a useful means for the screening of biologically active compounds contained in medicinal plants. We have identified cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors contained in various medicinal plants.2a-k) The present paper deals with the identification of cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors contained in the flowers and...

Trata-se uma processo criativo no que diz respeito à adaptação, aos modos construção sua obra articula questões autoria consolidação gênero cinematográfico ...

Sign languages are as different, and as specific to their communities, as spoken languages, and as readily acquired by children. Signed languages are, in fact, true natural human languages: a relatively recently discovered fact with crucial implications for the education of deaf children, say cognitive neuroscientist Daphne Bavelier and her colleagues. They probe both the profound similarities ...

The study of radiative φ decays into scalar mesons, with subsequent decay into ππγ, constitutes an important topic at the electron-positron collider DAPHNE. The interference of the respective amplitude with the one for ππγ production, where the photon originates from initial state radiation, will allow for unambiguous tests of models for the φ → γf0(→ ππ) amplitude. The forward-backward asymmet...

The present study describes in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of methanol extracts obtained from the leaves and twigs of the plant Daphne cneorum L. The antimicrobial activity of these extracts was tested against human pathogenic microorganisms using a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values. Total phenolics and flavonoids, as well as the antioxidant activity of the extrac...
