M-Cell assembly
In this thesis I propose a self- assembly procedure called the Morphocell(M-Cell) assembly. This procedure is based on an assembly unit called the M-Cell. The M-Cell is comprised out of two components, the M-Block and the M-Clay (in which the M-Block is embedded). During the assembly procedure the …

Building cell assembly based associative memory with spiking neurons
… three connected sub-CAs activates the third (2/3 assembly). Moreover, a single sub-CA can participate in multiple 2/3 pairs, enabling the network to achieve a storage capacity of O(N). The phasic interactions among sub-CAs are also explored to support more complex co-activation conditions and …

Inhibition, Synapses, and Spike-Timing: Identification and disruption of pyramidal cell-interneuron interactions in SPW-Rs
… CA1, interactions between excitatory pyramidal cells and inhibitory interneurons shape ensemble activity which encodes sequential experience. An extremely diverse set of inhibitory interneurons, with variation in gene expression, synaptic targeting, state-dependent activity, and connectivity, …

A THEORETICAL MODEL OF LEARNING EMPLOYING CONSTRUCTIVISM, NEUROSCIENCE, AND PHENOMENOLOGY: CONSTRUCTIVIST NEUROPHENOMENOLOGY
… there for consciousness, and (c) neuroscience cell assembly. These three actions of the brain construct consciousness, memory, and learning via metaphorical thinking.</p>

Simulation of concentrated photovoltaic cooling system
… with photovoltaic systems generally, the Amonix cells being used in this application tend to lose efficiency as their temperatures increase. To combat this effect, cooling is provided by circulating liquid through channels in the backing plate. The liquid is then pumped through an array of …

Modelling of solder interconnection’s performance in photovoltaic modules for reliability prediction
… failure of solder interconnections of solar cells in the modules due to accelerated thermo-mechanical degradation. The goal of this research is to provide adequate information for proper design of solar cell solder joint against fatigue failure through the study of cyclic thermo-mechanical …

Influence of perforant path synaptic excitation on the initiation of hippocampal sharp-wave ripple activity in vitro
… (1) reactivating small subsets of neurons (i.e. cell-assemblies) that encode recent waking experience and (2) propagating this information through the hippocampal formation. Although CA3 self-organizes SWRs in the absence of extrinsic inputs, cortical input to the HC conveyed by perforant path …

Fabrication and transfer assembly of microscale, solid-state light emitting diodes and solar cells for transparent and flexible electronics applications
… light-emitting diodes and silicon solar cells, for example, have achieved such extraordinarily high performance metrics that only incremental improvements upon them are expected in the next decade of intense research. This pseudo-plateau in performance development means concentrated …

Investigations of the assembly and function of the Toxoplasma micropore
… pellicle has conferred the parasite protection, cell shape, and motility, which is important for the parasite’s host invasion and survival. However, this pellicle has created a barrier to material exchange processes such as endocytosis. This has raised the question of how *Toxoplasma* and other …

Unique templating of and applications enabled through mesoporous colloids
… titania for improvement in dye-sensitized solar cells. A carbon colloidal crystal could successfully be fabricated on the conductive glass substrate after an initial titania deposition. Titania was deposited and infiltrated the mesoporous carbon colloidal crystal template. After titania …

Understanding language and attention: brain-based model and neurophysiological experiments
This work concerns the investigation of the neuronal mechanisms at the basis of language acquisition and processing, and the complex interactions of language and attention processes in the human brain. In particular, this research was motivated by two sets of existing neurophysiological data which …
