Cerebral Blood Flow in Posterior Cortical Nodes of the Default Mode Network Decreases with Task Engagement But Remains Higher Than in Most Brain Regions
We employed 3D arterial spin labeling imaging to examine regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) during rest, a spatial working memory task, and a second rest.

Electroactive Polymer Artificial Muscle Operable in Ultra-High Hydrostatic Pressure Environment
We have verified that the dielectric elastomer type of electroactive polymer can maintain good operational characteristics even in an ultrahigh-pressure environment by showing that the electroactive strain response to an applied voltage was unaffected by externally applied pressures of up to 100 MPa.

Fuel-Structure Dependence of Benzene Formation Processes in Premixed Flames Fueled By C6H12 Isomers
Close to the burner surface, successive dehydrogenation of the fuel is found to be important for the cyclohexane flame and to some smaller extent for the methylcyclopentane flame.

Neurological assessments after treatment with the antimalarial beta-arteether in neonatal and adult rats
This study shows that repeated treatment with clinically relevant doses of βAE causes motor deficits associated with brainstem damage in rodents and suggests that repeated treatment with βAE in children may elicit neurological damage.

What Is Hard About Representing Biology Textbook Knowledge?
To scale the knowledge base of a Biology textbook from 50 pages to 300 pages in the context of Project Halo, we have formulated a knowledge factory process.
