1. The Court of Appeal has recently been faced with two important cases that share a similar fact pattern. In both R (Campaign to Protect Rural England, Kent) v Dover District Council [2016] EWCA Civ 936 and Oakley v South...

Little evidence for Fast Mapping (FM) in adults
Conventional memory theory proposes that the hippocampus is initially responsible for encoding new information, before this responsibility is gradually transferred to the neocortex. Therefore, a report in 2011 by Sharon et al....

Investigating Fast Mapping Task Components
Fast mapping (FM) is an incidental learning process that is hypothesized to allow rapid, cortical-based memory formation, independent of the normal, hippocampally dependent episodic memory system. It is believed to underlie the...

Longitudinal fat mass and visceral fat during the first 6 months after birth in healthy infants
INTRODUCTION: Body composition in early life influences the development of obesity during childhood and beyond. It is, therefore, important to adequately determine longitudinal body composition during the first months of life....

Neurochemical Correlates of Brain Atrophy in Fibromyalgia Syndrome
(1) Background: Recently, a series of clinical neuroimaging studies on fibromyalgia (FM) have shown a reduction in cortical volume and abnormally high glutamate (Glu) and glutamate + glutamine (Glx) levels in regions associated...

Getting Social
Knowledge acquired by end users through their social networks facilitates optimal use of a newly implemented enterprise system. Existing research has conceptualized end users as being the only actors within such networks....
The bound coherent neutron scattering lengths of the oxygen isotopes
The technique of neutron interferometry was used to measure the bound coherent neutron scattering length b(coh) of the oxygen isotopes (17)O and (18)O. From the measured difference in optical path between two water samples...

Response to commentaries on our review of Fast Mapping in adults.
We thank all the commentators for their thoughts on our review of Fast Mapping (FM) in adults, where we questioned the evidence that FM is a distinct learning mechanism, and urged caution over the excitement generated by the...

Maintenance Resources Optimization Using Pareto Analysis
Managing resource allocation for optimum effectiveness at various levels of maintenance activities is always a challenging task. Optimizing maintenance resources enables an organization to set priorities towards achieving...
Competence and Electability

Dual Coding of Frequency Modulation in the Ventral Cochlear Nucleus.
Frequency modulation (FM) is a common acoustic feature of natural sounds and is known to play a role in robust sound source recognition. Auditory neurons show precise stimulus-synchronized discharge patterns that may be used for...

Discrimination of the phase of amplitude modulation applied to different carriers
The discrimination of amplitude modulation (AM) from frequency modulation (FM) of a 1000-Hz carrier, with equally detectable AM and FM, is better for a 2-Hz than for a 10-Hz modulation rate. This might reflect greater...

Biological Bodies: Defining Sex in the Modern Era
Bethany G Belton
Jan 01, 0001
Biological sex is largely accepted at face value, unquestioned by scientists or the public. It is so ingrained into our culture that it has been used to do everything from cornering the children's toy market to justifying the...

Stunting in infancy, pubertal trajectories and adult body composition
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Childhood rapid growth and earlier puberty onset have been associated with adult obesity. However, the association between childhood stunting, pubertal timing and adult obesity is unclear. We examined...
