Primate sympatry shapes the evolution of their brain architecture by Robira, Benjamin, Perez-Lamarque, Benoît

“…We speculate that species sympatry, by generating intense food depletion, might lead to an over-complexification of resource spatiotemporality that counteracts the benefits of high cognitive abilities and/or might drive niche partitioning and specialisation, thereby inducing lower brain region sizes. …”

Multisession Anodal tDCS Protocol Improves Motor System Function in an Aging Population by G. Dumel, M.-E. Bourassa, M. Desjardins, N. Voarino, C. Charlebois-Plante, J. Doyon, Louis De Beaumont

“…We found a significant group × training sessions interaction, indicating that whereas aging adults in the sham group exhibited little-to-no sequence-specific learning improvements beyond the first day of training, reproducible improvements in the ability to learn new motor sequences over 5 consecutive sessions were the net result in age-equivalent participants from the M1 a-tDCS group. …”

Myofibroblast-derived exosomes enhance macrophages to myofibroblasts transition and kidney fibrosis by Wenqiang Yu, Jinfang Song, Shuangquan Chen, Jiayi Nie, Chujun Zhou, Jiamin Huang, Hua Liang

“…By contrast, inhibition of exosome production with GW4869 or exosome depletion from the conditioned media abolished the ability of myofibroblasts to induce MMT. Mice treatment with myofibroblast-derived exosomes (Myo-Exo) exhibited severe fibrotic lesion and more abundant MMT cells in kidneys with folic acid (FA) injury, which was negated by TANK-banding kinase-1 inhibitor. …”

Examining the physical and psychological effects of combining multimodal feedback with continuous control in prosthetic hands by Digby Chappell, Zeyu Yang, Angus B. Clark, Alexandre Berkovic, Colin Laganier, Weston Baxter, Fernando Bello, Petar Kormushev, Nicolas Rojas

“…The combination of proprioceptive feedback and continuous control enabled more accurate position and force modulation than without proprioceptive feedback, and restored blindfolded object identification ability to open-loop discrete controller levels. Dexterity assessment and embodiment questionnaire results revealed no significant physical performance or psychological embodiment differences between control types, with the exception of perceived sensation questions, which were significantly higher (p < 0.001) for closed-loop controllers. …”
