FREEZING SUPPRESSION BY OXYTOCIN IN CENTRAL AMYGDALA ALLOWS ALTERNATE DEFENSIVE BEHAVIOURS AND MOTHER-PUP INTERACTIONS

Freezing suppression by oxytocin in central amygdala allows alternate defensive behaviours and mother-pup interactions

When animals 624 and their offspring are threatened, parents switch from self-defense to offspring protection.How self-defense is suppressed remains elusive.We postulated that suppression of the self-defense response, freezing, is gated via oxytocin acting in the centro-lateral amygdala (CeL).We found that rat dams conditioned to fear an odor, froz

All trees are six-cordial

For any integer $k>0$, a tree $T$ is $k$-cordial if there exists a labeling of the vertices of $T$ by $mathbb{Z}_k$, inducing edge-weights as the sum modulo $k$ of the labels on incident vertices to a given edge, which furthermore satisfies the following conditions: egin{enumerate}item Each label appears on at most one more vertex than any othe

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) in the Sub-6 GHz Band: Design, Implementation, and Real-World Demonstration

Here, we first aim to explain practical considerations to design and implement a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) in the sub-6 GHz band and then, to demonstrate its real-world performance.The wave manipulation procedure is explored with a discussion on relevant electromagnetic (EM) concepts and backgrounds.Based on that, the RIS is designed
