Ubiquitin and the Brain: Roles of Proteolysis in the Normal and Abnormal Nervous System
Proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) in the nervous system has been extensively studied both in the context of normal physiological function as well as abnormal pathological conditions. Although ubiquitin was used as a marker of brain pathology, the normal functions of the UPP were not studied much in the nervous system until the 1990s. The early investigations focused on synaptic plasticity which was followed by studies on the roles of protein degradation in the development of the nervous system. Research on the role of abnormal roles of the UPP follows a parallel trajectory. Since the 2000s, the field has grown to encompass many subareas of research and several model syste...

Relieving Pain in America
Chronic pain costs the nation up to $635 billion each year in medical treatment and lost productivity. The 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act required the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to enlist the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in examining pain as a public health problem. In this report, the IOM offers a blueprint for action in transforming prevention, care, education, and research, with the goal of providing relief for people with pain in America. To reach the vast multitude of people with various types of pain, the nation must adopt a population-level prevention and management strategy. The IOM recommends that HHS develop a comprehensive plan with specific goal...
Cognitive Electrophysiology
MICHAEL S. GAZZANIGA The investigation of the human brain and mind involves a myriad of ap proaches. Cognitive neuroscience has grown out of the appreciation that these approaches have common goals that are separate from other goals in the neural sciences. By identifying cognition as the construct of interest, cognitive neuro science limits the scope of investigation to higher mental functions, while simultaneously tackling the greatest complexity of creation, the human mind. The chapters of this collection have their common thread in cognitive neuroscience. They attack the major cognitive processes using functional stud ies in humans. Indeed, functional measures of human sensation, percepti...
Länder von Ogon. Band 2
Um ihren Bruder zu retten, geht Itomë einen Pakt mit einem uralten, bösen Geist ein. Von den Ihren verbannt, weil sie die uralten Gesetze ihres Clans gebrochen hat, und in einen inneren Kampf mit dem Geist verstrickt, der ihre Seele zu übernehmen versucht, begibt sie sich auf eine Reise ohne Wiederkehr quer durch Ogon. Itomë hat sich eins geschworen: Nie wieder wird sie ihre Entscheidungen von Angst leiten lassen. Von den Flusslanden Nak'Uru zu den fruchtbaren Savannen der Zentauren, von den schneebedeckten Gipfeln Morongos, der Heimat der Dunkelzwerge, zum Reich Massaka, wo die Meister der Magie residieren: »Die Länder von Ogon« sind reich an exotischen Völkern, kraftvollen Mythen und uralten Legenden. Die neue Serie aus dem Fantasy-Universum von Arran erkundet einen faszinierenden neuen Kontinent voller Abenteuer und Exotik.
Neurocircuitry of Addiction
People use drugs for many different reasons, including the pursuit of "high," social factors and self-medication of other conditions. Many millions of people are addicted to at least one substance, and the cost of addiction is immense, at both the individual and societal levels. Neurocircuitry of Addiction is the first book of its kind, with a focus on addiction neuroscience from a neural circuit perspective. This book begins with a primer on circuit-based neuroscience that equips the reader with an understanding of the applications described throughout the book. Each subsequent chapter positions a different brain region at the "center" of addiction neurocircuitry and goes on to describe the...
