Circuit motifs for contrast-adaptive differentiation in early sensory systems: the role of presynaptic inhibition and short-term plasticity. by Danke Zhang, Si Wu, Malte J Rasch

“…Thus to reduce redundancy, sensory systems are specialized to detect the times and amplitudes of informative abrupt changes in the input stream rather than coding the intensity values at all times. In theory, a system that responds transiently to fast changes is called a differentiator. …”

Neuronal encoding of texture in the whisker sensory pathway. by Ehsan Arabzadeh, Erik Zorzin, Mathew E Diamond

“…A major challenge of sensory systems neuroscience is to quantify brain activity underlying perceptual experiences and to explain this activity as the outcome of elemental neuronal response properties. Rats make extremely fine discriminations of texture by "whisking" their vibrissae across an object's surface, yet the neuronal coding underlying texture sensations remains unknown. …”

Use of cannabis to manage symptoms of mental and physical health conditions during pregnancy: analysis of a pro-cannabis pregnancy forum by Rachel L. Gunn, Rachel L. Gunn, Elizabeth R. Aston, Lia Artis, Jacqueline Nesi, Eric R. Pedersen, Lauren Micalizzi

“…Codes specific to symptom management for physical and mental health were subsequently subjected to further conceptual analysis for the current study.ResultsFour themes related to symptom management during pregnancy were identified: 1) cannabis use and impacts of use for a variety of mental health symptoms, including depression and anxiety; 2) cannabis use for physical health symptoms and conditions, such as nausea and pain; 3) use of cannabis to achieve homeostasis and manage stress; 4) decision-making about using cannabis for symptom management, such as using cannabis instead of prescription medications. …”
