The Role of the Parietal Lobe in Visual Extinction Studied with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
(University of Chicago Press, 2009)Interhemispheric competition between homologous areas in the human brain is believed to be involved in a wide variety of human behaviors from motor activity to visual perception and particularly attention. For example, ... -
The Role of the Primary Visual Cortex in Higher Level Vision
(Elsevier, 1998)In the classical feed-forward, modular view of visual processing, the primary visual cortex (area V1) is a module that serves to extract local features such as edges and bars. Representation and recognition of objects are ... -
The role of themata in science
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1996-04)Since the 1960s. thematic analysis has been introduced as a new tool for understanding the success or the failure of individual scientific research projects, particularly in their early stages. Specific examples are given, ... -
The Role of Thematic Roles in Sentence Processing: Evidence from Structural Priming in Young Children
(2011-11-16)The syntactic realization of a verb’s arguments is constrained by the role that the argument plays in the meaning of the verb. In most linguistic frameworks, these constraints are captured by mappings between syntactic ... -
The Role of Transcription Factors at Antisense-Expressing Gene Pairs in Yeast
(Oxford University Press, 2016)Genes encoded close to one another on the chromosome are often coexpressed, by a mechanism and regulatory logic that remain poorly understood. We surveyed the yeast genome for tandem gene pairs oriented tail-to-head at ... -
The Role of Transverse Occipital Sulcus in Scene Perception and Its Relationship to Object Individuation in Inferior Intraparietal Sulcus
(MIT Press - Journals, 2013)The parietal cortex has been functionally divided into various subregions; however, very little is known about how these areas relate to each other. Two such regions are the transverse occipital sulcus (TOS) scene area and ... -
The Role of Underlying Representations in L2 Brazilian English

The Role of Unemployment in the Rise in Alternative Work Arrangements
(American Economic Association, 2017-05)Much evidence indicates that the traditional nine-to-five employee-employer relationship is in decline. Although comprehensive, high-frequency data on US work arrangements are not available, the trend appears to have begun ... -
The Role of World War II in the Rise of Women's Employment
(American Economic Association, 1991)The 1940's were a turning point in married women's labor force participation, leading many to credit World War II with spurring economic and social change. This paper uses information from two retrospective surveys, one ... -
Roles for modularity and constraint in the evolution of cranial diversity among anolis lizards
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011)Complex organismal structures are organized into modules, suites of traits that develop, function, and vary in a coordinated fashion. By limiting or directing covariation among component traits, modules are expected to ... -
The roles of cell size and cell number in determining ovariole number in Drosophila
(Elsevier BV, 2012)All insect ovaries are composed of functional units called ovarioles, which contain sequentially developing egg chambers. The number of ovarioles varies between and within species. Ovariole number is an important determinant ... -
The roles of cis- and trans-regulation in the evolution of regulatory incompatibilities and sexually dimorphic gene expression
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2013)Evolutionary changes in gene expression underlie many aspects of phenotypic diversity within and among species. Understanding the genetic basis for evolved changes in gene expression is therefore an important component of ... -
Rolling of the jaw is essential for mammalian chewing and tribosphenic molar function
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-02)Over the past two centuries, mammalian chewing and related anatomical features have been among the most discussed of all vertebrate evolutionary innovations. Chief among these features are two characters: the dentary-only ... -

A room temperature low-threshold ultraviolet plasmonic nanolaser
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014)Constrained by large ohmic and radiation losses, plasmonic nanolasers operated at visible regime are usually achieved either with a high threshold (102–104 MW cm−2) or at cryogenic temperatures (4–120 K). Particularly, the ...
