α4β2* and α7 Nicotinic Receptors Play a Role in L-Dopa-Induced Dyskinesias; Studies Using Parkinsonian Knockout Mice
Since α4a5β2 nAChRs are also predominantly on striatal dopamine terminals, these data suggest that drugs targeting α4β2 nAChRs may reduce L-dopa-induced dyskinesias in late stage Parkinson’s disease.

Vagal Withdrawal During Hot Flashes Occurring in Undisturbed Sleep
Little is known about the impact of hot flashes on cardiac autonomic regulation, in particular vagal control. Thereby, we assessed the cardiac autonomic profile associated with physiological hot flashes occurring…

Autonomic Regulation across Phases of the Menstrual Cycle and Sleep Stages in Women with Premenstrual Syndrome and Healthy Controls
To investigate the influence of menstrual cycle phase and the presence of severe premenstrual symptoms on cardiac autonomic control during sleep, we performed heart rate variability (HRV) analysis.

Imaging Hippocampal Neuronal Activity across Sleep/Wake States in Freely Behaving Mice
We have utilized a combination of methodologies that collectively enable time-lapse imaging of CA1 neuronal calcium dynamics in behaving mice over periods of many weeks.

Invasion biology and the success of social collaboration networks, with application to Wikipedia
We adapt methods from the stochastic theory of invasions for which a key question is whether a propagule will grow to an established population or fail to show how monitoring…
