Is the Café Scientifique a fashionable by-product of a comfortable age or an indicator of the changing relationship between science and society?

The objective of the study was to investigate the presence of the phase-locking between a pair of physiological tremor signals from two closely located neurons in the thalamotomy area of a human brain. Most frequently used current methods detect both phase and amplitude correlations between tremor signals based on the stationary assumption of the signals. The correlation analysis method utilize...

The paper provides an overview of the field of scientometrics, that is: the study of science, technology, and innovation from a quantitative perspective. We cover major historical milestones in the development of this specialism from the 1960s to today and discuss its relationship with the sociology of scientific knowledge, the library and information sciences, and science policy issues such as...

Background—The pharmacological treatment of essential tremor (ET) is not optimal. There are only two first-line medications and troublesome side effects are common. It is not uncommon for patients to simply stop taking medication. Yet no published data substantiate or quantify this anecdotal impression. Objectives—To determine, among ET patients who were prescribed medication for tremor, what p...

Indicators are increasingly recognized as an important decision aid tool to translate sustainability issue from theory into practice. However, indicator development for sustainable community development is rather successful than the agricultural sector due to methodological lacuna. The aim of this study is to develop a methodological framework for indicator development and an essential set of i...
