Real-time analog acquisition of electrophysiological signals with Soma
Soma is a high-density recording system for real-time acquisition and analysis of extracellular electrophysiological signals. Here I describe the design, implementation, and evaluation of the Soma Acquisition Board, an 8-channel low-latency amplifier for amplification and digitization of these …

mRNA stability in soma and neurites of cultured neuronal cells
… transcriptomes of neural projections and soma of mouse neuronal cells following inhibition of transcription with actinomycin-D. Less stable transcripts were enriched for GU-rich elements in their 3' UTRs. Around 12% of alternative splicing isoform pairs differed in stability, and cassette …

The embodied mind: A journey through the “soma” to reach the “psyche”
Background: Recent studies have confirmed a significant comorbidity between eating disorders and self-harm; they linked the presence of self-harm to a more severe and treatment-resistant eating disorder symptomatology. Difficulties with impulse-control were suggested to mediate this association. …

THE EFFECT OF SKELETAL MUSCLE-SYNTHESIZED BDNF ON MOTOR NEURON SOMA SIZE AND BDNF PROTEIN ABUNDANCE
… of the BDNF/TrkB endosome to the motor neuron soma. At the motor neuron soma, the BDNF/TrkB complex activates cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) response element binding protein (CREB), leading to transcriptional changes that support neuron dendrite growth and survival. Using a skeletal …

Ribosome Heterogeneity in Zebrafish Germ and Soma provides insight into Gene Expression during Development and Disease
… type-specific expression of two zebrafish ribosomal DNA (rDNA) genes was identified (Locati et al. 2017b). One rDNA variant located on chromosome 4 was found to be specifically expressed in eggs (aka maternal type), while expression of another rDNA variant located on chromosome 5 was specific …

Strata, Soma, Psyche: Narrative and the Imagination in the Nineteenth-Century Science of Lyell, Darwin, and Freud
My dissertation, “Strata, Soma, Psyche: Narrative and the Imagination in the Nineteenth-Century Science of Lyell, Darwin, and Freud,” contributes new research to the diverse field mapping the intersections of science and literature in the nineteenth century. Although scholars such as Gillian Beer …

People, Land, and Profit in the South of Market: A Critical Analysis of the Central SoMa Plan
… analyze the neighborhood area plan, the Central SoMa Plan, and speculate on the possible impacts of the plan. Based on the history of development and change in the South of Market, and a review of existing area plans, the argument is made that the changes proposed in the Central SoMa Plan work to …

Psyche in soma: an investigation of the assimilation of conflicts in in two psychotherapy clients with functional abdominal pain
The relationship between somatic symptoms and psychological functioning were investigated in two intensive case studies of the processes and outcomes of psychodynamic psychotherapy involving clients with chronic abdominal pain. A main objective of the study was to see how change might be …

SoMa (Sound Masses): A modular system for data-driven algorithmic composition with large sample libraries, focusing on the dynamic formation and control of spatialised sound groups
Η έρευνα αυτή αφορά την ανάπτυξη ενός συστήματος στο Max/MSP, βασισμένου στην Ανάκτηση Μουσικής Πληροφορίας (Music Information Retrieval) και σε διάφορους μηχανισμούς αναζήτησης για την πλοήγηση σε μεγάλες βιβλιοθήκες από samples. Διερευνά τον δυναμικό σχηματισμό και έλεγχο υποομάδων της μεγάλης …

Solution of the Fokker-Planck Equation by Sequentially Optimized Meshfree Approximation
… Sequentially Optimized Meshfree Approximation (SOMA) method. It is well known that numerical solution of the Fokker-Planck equation is made di cult by the challenges of positivity enforcement, in nite domain, and high dimensionality. Through the use of optimization, radial basis functions, and …

Ecodistricts in San Francisco: The Implementation of Neighborhood Regional Planning and Its Potential Effects on Environmental Resilience
… and advanced urban infrastructure. Central SoMa is the first ecodistrict to be planned and implemented in San Francisco, with the intention of revitalizing and greening this urbanized region of the city. At this time, the Central SoMa area has very low biodiversity levels, inefficient …

Functional and Categorical Analysis of Waveshapes Recorded on Microelectrode Arrays
… that can occur in the axon and possibly in soma or dendrites. The latter are hypothesized to be passive which is generally secluded to soma or dendrites. In order to verify these hypotheses, I pharmacologically targeted ion channels with tetrodotoxin (TTX), tetraethylammonium (TEA), …

Regulation of Microtubules by Patronin within Drosophila Dendrites
… excessive growth of microtubules away from the soma. Given that most microtubules have their minus ends facing away from the soma in the dendrites of these neurons, I propose that the absence of Patronin leads to the unregulated growth of minus-ends away from the soma that invade terminal …

Development of spiral ganglion cells in syrian golden hamster
… number of myelin sheaths surrounding the cell somas and their axons at the light and electron microscopy levels. The results were compared with time course plots of functional development reported in previous studies. The results indicate that there were no significant increases in the cell …

Characterization and Functional Analysis of Astrotactin 2 Reveals a Role for Endocytosis in Glial-guided Neuronal Migration
… of an interstitial junction beneath the cell soma. Biochemical and molecular biological experiments demonstrated that neuronal protein astrotactin (ASTN1) functions as a neuron-glial ligand during migration. This thesis presents the cloning and biochemistry of a second member of the Astn gene …

Integrin signalling in pluripotent cells acts as a gatekeeper of mouse germline entry
… posterior region of the mouse embryo, where the somatic germ layers begin to emerge and a series of dramatic morphological changes occur at the onset of gastrulation. While the transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms that drive entry into the germline have been extensively characterised, …

Identification and characterization of components of rab-6-mediated trafficking in caenorhabditus elegans
… along the ventral nerve cord and in the neuron soma. SAC-2::GFP localization to puncta in the soma is enhanced in rab-6.2(ok2254) null mutant animals, which is opposite to our expectation for RAB-6.2 retrograde cargo or effector molecules. Additionally, we assessed the overlap in functions …
