1 Bastiani, MichaelLoss of axons in the cat optic nerve following fetal unilateral enucleation: an electron microscopic analysisBetween the 48th day of gestation (E-48) and maturity, the number of axons in the cat optic nerve is reduced by approximately 50%. On the basis of an electron microscopic assay, the axon population of the E-48 nerve was estimated to be 328,000. In contrast, estimates from two normal adults were 159,...Ganglion cell death; Retinofugal projection; Retinal ganglion cell axons1983
2 Goller, FranzVibratory behavior of the sound generating structures of the bird syrinxRecent endoscopic studies of the bird syrinx during phonation suggest that sound is generated by vibrating membrane folds or labia (Goller and Larsen, J. exp. Biol., 200, 2165-2176, 1997; Goller and Larsen, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 4,14787-14791, 1997) and not by a whistle mechanism (Nottebohm, J. ...Vocalization; Vibration detector; Whistle mechanism1998
3 Bastiani, MichaelGuidance of neuronal growth cones in the grasshopper embryo. II. Recognition of a specific axonal pathway by the aCC neuronIn the previous paper, we experimentally analyzed the selective affinity of the pCC growth cone for the MP1/dMP2 fascicle in the grasshopper embryo. Here we describe a similar experimental analysis demonstrating the selective affinity of the aCC growth cone for the U fascicle. These results support...Axon; Cell; Fascicle1986
4 Bastiani, MichaelPathfinding by neuronal growth cones in grasshopper embryos: II. Selective fasciculation onto specific axonal pathwaysIn the previous paper (Raper, J. A., M. Bastiani, and C. S. Goodman (1983) J. Neurosci. 3: 20-30) we showed that the growth cones of two sibling neurons, the G and C cells, follow the same route in the developing grasshopper neuropil until they reach a stereotypic choice point. Here their growth con...Neurons; Axons; Neuropil1983
5 Yamaguchi, AyakoDevelopment of an acute method to deliver transgenes into the brains of adult Xenopus laevisThe central vocal pathway of the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is a powerful vertebrate model to understand mechanisms underlying central pattern generation. However, fast and efficient methods of introducing exogenous genes into the neurons of adult X. laevis are currently not available. Her...viral vector; vesicular stomatitis virus; Xenopus laevis; transgene; neurons; vocalizations; central pattern generator; electroporation2018
6 Allen, Edgar S.Sensory information processing and symbolic computation (1 Jan. 1975 - 30 June 1975)This research uses digital computation to investigate processes, both linear and nonlinear, for the filtering. restoration, enhancement, bandwidth reduction, distortion immunization and analysis of both visual and auditory information.Sensory information processing; Symbolic computation; Auditory information; Visual information1973
