Future studies could investigate this by recording in additional thalamic sites, or by disrupting slow waves in a local cortical region and examining the impact on distant regions.
We used a cross-hemispheric frontal electrode montage in conjunction with tACS (instead of tDCS) and found this disrupted slow wave generation as expected, suggesting that it is the montage, and not the electric current as such (i.e. mere presence of any exogenous non-zero amperage), that determines the effects of transcranial electrical stimulation on sleep and memory consolidation.
A striking example of this type of interaction is shown in sudden stratospheric warming events, which occur when the circulation of the polar vortex is disrupted, slowing down or even reversing the direction of the vortex winds during a period of a few days (Labitzke 1972 , 1981 Simmons 1974).
A replacement for Mr. Bolton would disrupt the slow process of coalition-building in the current environment.
In Iran, the government clearly had some success using the Internet to disrupt and slow the green revolution.
These frustrations, not only cause personal dissatisfaction and loss of self-efficacy, but may disrupt workplaces, slow learning, and reduce participation in local and national communities.
From its inception in 2005, the startup has been on a mission to disrupt the slow-moving, archaic world of Healthcare IT by providing a free, web-based electronic medical records (EMR) platform to doctors and their practices.
Mouse models in which the development of retrotrapezoid neurons is disrupted display slow breathing and have weakened, or blunted, responses to acidification (Sieber et al., 2007; Dubreuil et al., 2008, 2009; Goridis et al., 2010; Ramanantsoa et al., 2011).
A growing number of nations whose forces are overmatched by the United States are fielding these weapons, which can slow, disrupt and perhaps even halt an American offensive.
