Chorea is one of the major types of involuntary movement disorders originating from dysfunctional
neuronal networks interconnecting the basal ganglia and frontal cortical motor areas. …

Over the last few years, we have seen an increasing interest and demand for pigs in biomedical
research. Domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus) are closely related to humans in terms …

The performance of the LHCb Muon system and its stability across the full 2010 data taking
with LHC running at√ s= 7 TeV energy is studied. The optimization of the detector setting …

Numerical models of granular shear show lower friction and a greater tendency for stick slip
than laboratory studies designed to investigate fault mechanics. Here we report on …

Rationale: Despite improved understanding of the underlying genetics, pulmonary arterial
hypertension (PAH) remains a severe disease. Extensive remodeling of small pulmonary …

We report on the topographic roughness measurements of five exhumed faults and thirteen
surface earthquake ruptures over a large range of scales: from 50 μm to 50 km. We used …
