Volts

Volts are units of electric potential difference that describe how much energy is transferred per unit of electric charge between two points. One volt equals one joule per coulomb, so a potential difference of one volt provides one joule of energy to each coulomb of charge; this difference can drive current through a circuit when a conducting path exists. Measuring voltage with a voltmeter helps characterize batteries, power supplies, electric fields, and circuit components, while the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance enables analysis using Ohm’s law. Understanding volts is essential for designing safe electrical systems and interpreting physical and technological processes involving energy transfer.

2020

We established the conditions to culture neural progenitor cells from the subventricular zone and dentate gyrus of the adult brain of prairie voles, as a complementary in vitro study, to analyze the sex-dependent differences between neurogenic niches that could be part of functional plastic changes associated with social behaviors.

Co-analysis of Brain Structure and Function using fMRI and Diffusion-weighted Imaging

2012

We describe a novel approach for simultaneous analysis of brain function and structure using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assess brain structure with high-resolution diffusion-weighted imaging and white-matter fiber tractography. Unlike standard structural MRI, these techniques allow us to directly relate anatomical connectivity to functional properties of brain networks.
