Proceedings of the International School on Magnetic Resonance and Brain Function - XII Workshop
(2018)
In the last thirty years, Magnetic Resonance has generated a wide revolution in biomedical research and in medical imaging in general. More recently, the "in vivo" studies of the human brain were extended by new ...
Progress in Ecological Stoichiometry
(2018)
Ecological stoichiometry concerns the way that the elemental composition of organisms shapes their ecology. It deals with the balance or imbalance of elemental ratios and how that affects organism growth, nutrient cycling, ...
Progress in Episodic Memory Research
(2016)
Episodic memory refers to the ability to remember personal experiences in terms of what happened and where and when it happened. Humans are also able to remember the specific perceptions, emotions and thoughts they had ...
The Psychology of Magic and the Magic of Psychology
(2016)

Psychomotor symptoms are those symptoms that are characterized by deficits in the initiation, execution and monitoring of movements, such as psychomotor slowing, catatonia, neurological soft signs (NSS), reduction in motor ...
Refining Prevention: Genetic and Epigenetic Contributions
(2016)
Currently, most prevention efforts are framed as universal interventions. However, despite the demonstrated efficacy of many prevention programs, variability in response is the rule with some participants responding very ...
Plant Organ Abscission: From Models to Crops
(2017)
Plant organ abscission is a developmental process regulated by the environment, stress, pathogens and the physiological status of the plant. In particular, seed and fruit abscission play an important role in seed dispersion ...
The plant microbiome and its importance for plant and human health
(2015)
The study of plant-microbe associations by new techniques has significantly improved our understanding of the structure and specificity of the plant microbiome. Yet, microbiome function and the importance of the plant’s ...
Plant cell wall in pathogenesis, parasitism and symbiosis
(2015)
The cell wall is a complex structure mainly composed of cellulose microfibrils embedded in a cohesive hemicellulose and pectin matrix. Cell wall structural proteins, enzymes and their inhibitors are also essential components ...
Plant Phenotyping and Phenomics for Plant Breeding
(2018)
As a consequence of the global climate change, both the reduction on yield potential and the available surface area of cultivated species will compromise the production of food needed for a constant growing population. ...
