Scientists at the University of Oxford demonstrate an approach to interpreting how materials interact with polarized light, ...

Liquids and solutions are complex environments—think, for example, of sugar dissolving in water, where each sugar molecule ...

This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (statedependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level.

We conclude that brain states are shaped by local circuit mechanisms, large-scale connectivity and neuromodulation. A unified multiscale theory of cortical dynamics is relevant not only for ...
