Investigating and harnessing T-cell functions with engineered immune receptors and their ligands
(2015)
T-cells are an essential component of the immune system that provide protection against pathogen infections and cancer and are involved in the aetiology of numerous autoimmune and autoinflammatory pathologies. Their ...
Investigating the human brainstem with structural and functional MRI
(2014)
The brainstem is one of the least understood parts of the human brain despite its prime importance for the maintenance of basic vital functions. Owing to its role as a relay station between spinal cord, cerebellum and ...
Investigating Human Nature and Communication through Robots
(2017)
The development of information technology enabled us to exchange more items of information among us no matter how far we are apart from each other. It also changed our way of communication. Various types of robots recently ...
Investigating Grammar in Autism Spectrum Disorders
(2018)
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD hereafter) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in communicative and social skills. The vast majority of research on language in ASD has focused on pragmatic difficulties, ...
Invisible, but how? The depth of unconscious processing as inferred from different suppression techniques
(2015)
To what level are invisible stimuli processed by the brain in the absence of conscious awareness? It is widely accepted that simple visual properties of invisible stimuli are processed; however, the existence of higher-level ...
Involvements of TRP Channels and Oxidative Stress in Pain
(2018)
Undoubtedly, pain conditions the quality of life of millions of people worldwide suffering a wide range of diseases. Major research efforts are being made by the international scientific community to determine the mechanisms ...
Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors Trafficking in Health and Disease
(2017)
The knowledge about the properties and importance of ionotropic glutamate receptor trafficking is ever increasing. Importantly, the pace of the progress has been accelerated in recent years. Here, our contributors provide ...

The Janus-Face of Language: Where Are the Emotions in Words and the Words in Emotions?
(2018)
<p>Language has long been considered independent from emotions. In the last few years however research has accumulated empirical evidence against this theoretical belief of a purely cognitive-based foundation of language. ...

In this Research Topic, we provide a comprehensive overview of current public health leadership research, focusing on understanding the impact of leadership on the delivery of public health services. By bringing together ...
Madness and Creativity: Yes, No or Maybe?
(2015)
The pervasive idea that madness and creativity are intricately linked is one that holds tremendous fascination for both scientists and the general public alike. Although this view was at first largely driven by anecdotal ...
Linguistic Influences on Mathematical Cognition
(2017)
For many years, an abstract, amodal semantic magnitude representation, largely independent of verbal linguistic representations, has been viewed as the core numerical or mathematical representation This assumption has been ...
Maintenance of Genome Integrity: DNA Damage Sensing, Signaling, Repair and Replication in Plants
(2016)
Environmental stresses and metabolic by-products can severely affect the integrity of genetic information by inducing DNA damage and impairing genome stability. As a consequence, plant growth and productivity are irreversibly ...
Magnetoencephalography: an emerging neuroimaging tool for studying normal and abnormal human brain development
(2015)
Research on the human brain development has seen an upturn in the past years mostly due to novel neuroimaging tools that became available to study the anatomy and function of the developing brain. Magnetic Resonance Imaging ...
Manipulative approaches to human brain dynamics
(2015)
In this EBook, we highlight how newly emerging techniques for non-invasive manipulation of the human brain, combined with simultaneous recordings of neural activity, contribute to the understanding of brain functions and ...
Manipulation of the host cell by viral auxiliary proteins
(2015)
Productive HIV infection requires completion of all the steps of the replication cycle, the success of which largely relying on the multiple interactions established by viral proteins with cellular partners. Indeed, cellular ...
Manipulation of the cellular microbicidal response and endocytic dynamic by pathogens membrane factors
