DOI: 10.1002/acm2.13761
Abstract: Abstract Purpose Medical physics computed tomography (CT) practice involves measurements to determine CTDIvol on representative clinical CT protocols. In current practice the majority of CT exams employ helical scans. To determine CTDIvol for a helical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2022.136548
Abstract: To orientate in space, the brain must integrate sensory information that encodes the position of the body with the visual cues from the surrounding environment. In this process, the extent of reliance on visual information… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/21507740.2017.1392375
Abstract: Canavero andRen (2017) suggest that both public and bioethical objections to head/body transplantation will subside after patient outcomes prove successful in an analogous way to how similar objections to kidney and heart transplants have already… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icz005
Abstract: Studies of vertebrate feeding have predominantly focused on the bones and muscles of the head, not the body. Yet, postcranial musculoskeletal structures like the spine and pectoral girdle are anatomically linked to the head, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mve.12287
Abstract: Insect reproduction is extremely variable, but the implications of alternative genetic systems are often overlooked in studies on the evolution of insecticide resistance. Both ecotypes of Pediculus humanus (Phthiraptera: Pediculidae), the human head and body… read more here.

A conserved neuropeptide system links head and body motor circuits to enable adaptive behavior
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "eLife"
DOI: 10.7554/elife.71747
Abstract: Neuromodulators promote adaptive behaviors that are often complex and involve concerted activity changes across circuits that are often not physically connected. It is not well understood how neuromodulatory systems accomplish these tasks. Here, we show… read more here.
