Although the serotonergic system plays an important role in various neurological disorders,
the role of early serotonergic projections to the developing cerebral cortex is not well …

Building on gene–environment interaction (G × E) research, this study examines how the
dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) gene interacts with a situational prime of religion to influence …

Fractional Brownian motion (FBM), a non-Markovian self-similar Gaussian stochastic process
with long-ranged correlations, represents a widely applied, paradigmatic mathematical …

All vertebrate brains contain a dense matrix of thin fibers that release serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine),
a neurotransmitter that modulates a wide range of neural, glial, and vascular …

Due to time and resource constraints, small samples (N=3–7 cases per group) are often
used in neurobiological studies that employ multiple techniques. In a simulation study, five …

The self-organization of the brain matrix of serotonergic axons (fibers) remains an unsolved
problem in neuroscience. The regional densities of this matrix have major implications for …

We propose a generalization of the widely used fractional Brownian motion (FBM), memory-multi-FBM
(MMFBM), to describe viscoelastic or persistent anomalous diffusion with time-…

A direct pathway from the retina to the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) has been demonstrated
in both albino rats and Mongolian gerbils. Following intraocular injection of cholera toxin …

Random dropout has become a standard regularization technique in artificial neural networks
(ANNs), but it is currently unknown whether an analogous mechanism exists in biological …

Background Research in the last fifty years has shown that many autistic individuals have
elevated serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) levels in blood platelets. This phenomenon, …
