PHARMACOGENOMIC IDENTIFICATION OF SMALL MOLECULES FOR LINEAGE SPECIFIC MANIPULATION OF SUBVENTRICULAR ZONE GERMINAL ACTIVITY.

Pharmacogenomic identification of small molecules for lineage specific manipulation of subventricular zone germinal activity.

Strategies for promoting neural regeneration are hindered by the difficulty of manipulating desired neural fates in the brain without complex genetic methods.The subventricular zone (SVZ) is the largest germinal zone of the forebrain and is responsible for the lifelong generation Treatments - Cold of interneuron subtypes and oligodendrocytes.Here,

Sting, Carry and Stock: How Corpse Availability Can Regulate De-Centralized Task Allocation in a Ponerine Ant Colony.

We develop a model to produce plausible patterns of task partitioning in the ponerine ant Ectatomma ruidum based on the availability of living prey and prey corpses.The model is based on the organizational capabilities of a "common stomach" through which the colony utilizes the availability of a natural (food) substance as a major communication cha
