Radar Detectability Studies of Slow and Small Zodiacal Dust Cloud Particles. I. The Case of Arecibo 430 MHz Meteor Head Echo Observations
In this paper, we present a new methodology utilizing meteor head echo radar observations that aims to constrain the ZDC physical model by ground-based measurements.

The α7 nicotinic receptor agonist ABT-107 decreases L-Dopa-induced dyskinesias in parkinsonian monkeys
Since rodent studies also suggested an involvement of α7 nAChRs in LIDs, we tested the effect of the potent, selective α7 agonist ABT-107 [5-(6-[(3R)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yloxy] pyridazin-3-yl)-1H-indole].

Blockade of α6* nAChR Reduces L-Dopa-Induced Dyskinesias; Studies Using Parkinsonian α6* nAChR Gain-of-Function Mice
To understand the mechanism through which α6β2* nAChRs regulate L-dopa-induced AIMs, we used gain-of-function α6* nAChR (α6L9’S) mice. This mutation results in enhanced sensitivity to nicotine/acetylcholine and prolonged receptor-mediated activity.

Entity Centric Feature Pooling for Complex Event Detection
In this paper, we propose an entity centric region of interest detection and visual-semantic pooling scheme for complex event detection in YouTube-like videos.

The α7 nicotinic receptor agonist ABT-107 protects against nigrostriatal damage in rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions.
The finding that smoking is inversely correlated with Parkinson’s disease and that nicotine attenuates nigrostriatal damage in Parkinsonian animals supports the idea that nicotine may be neuroprotective.

The Effect of Solar Flares, Coronal Mass Ejections, and Solar Wind Streams on Venus’ 5577 Angstrom Oxygen Green Line
We observed the Venusian 5577.3 Å OI nightglow emission feature after solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and solar wind streams from December 2010 to July 2012 using the high resolution…
