Interval timing refers to the ability to perceive, estimate and discriminate durations in the range of seconds to minutes.Very little is currently known about the ontogeny of interval timing throughout development.On the other hand, even though the neural circuit sustaining interval timing is a matter of debate, the striatum has been suggested to b
Masculinity and Rape in Spanish Cinema: Representation and Collective Imaginary
Commercial cinema in Spain, as in the rest of the world, has gone to great lengths to describe visually, without any intention of protest, each and every one of the forms of violence against women: physical, psychological, financial, social and, lastly, sexual.Beyond insinuating and intimidating compliments and gazes, sexual violence is something t
Modulation of water surface waves with a coiling-up-space metasurface
We have designed a gradient-index (GRIN) metasurface to modulate water surface waves (WSWs).The metasurface is composed of Hair an array of coiling-up-space units with a deep sub-wavelength scale, and can focus/scatter WSWs when the units are arranged elaborately and pierced into water.The modulation of WSWs has been ascribed to Adhesive the relati
Gene flow in a national cross-breeding beef population
Future progress in genetic improvement and the monitoring of genetic resources in beef cattle requires a detailed understanding of the population under selection.This study examines the gene flow in the UK beef population with an uncommon breeding structure involving interaction between the beef and dairy populations.British Cattle Movement Service
