Stimuli are changes in our environment that we respond to and are detected by receptors. Different receptors are sensitive to different stimuli (eg receptors in the eye are sensitive to light). A ...
In order to evaluate whether the response of a reflex vagal stimulation (oculo-cardiac reflex:OCR) is influenced by the ANS tone (sympathetic or parasympathetic dominance) and stages of alertness ...
Using a rat model for high blood pressure (hypertension), a common chronic cardiovascular condition, researchers found that preexisting hypertension altered normal reflexes in the lungs to affect ...
The brain isn’t wired for what’s good for us, it’s wired for what feels safe and efficient,” explains Courtney Shrum, LMHC, ...
New research from Stanford and Seoul University has lead to the development of an artificial sensor system that potentially can act like skin for prosthetics and robots. Prosthetics limbs have seen ...
