Title: CORTICAL ACTIVITY OF THE SENSORIMOTOR SYSTEM IN PARTICIPANTS WITH CHRONIC ANKLE INSTABILITY
Author: Burcal, Christopher
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Kinesiology, Neurosciences
Description: Patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) exhibit a wide variety of sensorimotor deficits. These include impairments in feed-forward sensorimotor control (i.e. motor planning) as well as feed-back sensorimotor control, which pertains to refini...

Title: Examining how regular meditation practice influences the neural oscillatory activity associated with refocusing attention after a mind wandering episode.
Author: Fix, Spencer
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Psychology, Neurosciences
Description: Introduction. Mind wandering (MW) has become a topic of interest in neuroscience research, particularly because of its tendency to interrupt goal directed behavior and negatively impact mental and physical health. Several brain networks have been ...

Title: Exploring the Neurocorrelates of Virtual Reality Immersion Using EEG Frequency Decomposition Analysis
Author: Granson, Matthew
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Psychology, Cognitive psychology, Neurosciences
Description: Immersion is a psychological state resulting in the sensation of being enveloped in another reality or environment and is commonly experienced while using interactive media such as videogames. The goals of the present thesis project were to (a) te...

Title: Interactive Mining for Large-scale Neuro-Morphological Datasets
Author: Li, Zhongyu
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Computer science, Neurosciences, Biomedical engineering
Description: In this dissertation, we aim to investigate advanced methods for the computational analytics of large-scale neuro-morphological datasets, which can help neuroscientists interactively explore neurons in real-time. Particularly, we tackle the neuro-...

Title: Polymer Mediated Delivery of Oligonucleotide and Trans Genes Toward More Efficient and Specific Therapies for Dystrophinopathies and Dystroglycanopathies
Author: Tucker, Jason
Date Created: 2014
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biology, Neurosciences
Description: Muscular dystrophies are genetic disorders caused by mutations in more than 30 genes, with no cure or effective treatment. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by frame-shift mutations in the dystrophin gene with little or no functional dys...

Title: ROLE OF THE NOVEL DNA SENSORS cGAS, IFI16, AND ZBP1, DURING VIRAL INFECTIONS IN GLIA
Author: Jeffries, Austin
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Virology, Neurosciences
Description: Viral central nervous system (CNS) infections can lead to life threatening encephalitis and long-term neurological deficits in survivors. Resident CNS cell types, such as astrocytes and microglia, are known to produce key inflammatory and antivira...

Title: Regulation of Myosin IIIa Motor/Kinase Activity
Author: Moore, Judy
Date Created: 2009
Subjects--Topical: Biochemistry, Neurosciences, Cytology
Description: Myosin IIIa, a motor protein that localizes to actin-rich regions of photoreceptors and to stereocilia of inner ear hair cells, is associated with the hearing process in vertebrates and with phototransduction for invertebrates. It contains a large...

Title: Role of the DNA Sensors cGAS and ZBP1 in DNA Damage and Viral Infection
Author: Suptela, Alexander
Date Created: 2023
Subjects--Topical: Immunology, Molecular biology, Neurosciences
Description: Genomic instability is a key driving force for the development and progression of many neurodegenerative diseases and central nervous system (CNS) cancers. The initiation of DNA damage responses (DDRs) is a critical step in maintaining genomic int...

Title: Study of the Intracellular Protein Tau and its Relationship with Kunjin Virus and Neurodegenerative Diseases
Author: Lotz, Sarah
Date Created: 2022
Subjects--Topical: Neurosciences, Immunology, Virology
Description: Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, comprise a family of disorders characterized by progressive loss of nervous system function. Neuroinflammation is increasingly recogni...
