Consequently, CPA offers a uniquely powerful method for investigating neuronal and O2-based signals simultaneously in behaving animals.
Demonstrating this sort of multilevel coordination remains a grand challenge for it requires technology that monitors multiple levels simultaneously in behaving animals.
And new techniques, like optogenetics (which allow experimenters to control brain activity — and hence an animal's behavior — by exposing neurons to light) and fluorescent imaging (which makes it possible to monitor the responses of thousands of neurons simultaneously in awake, behaving animals), make addressing such questions potentially feasible for the first time.
In this study, semiconductor II VI quantum dots of type MX (M = Cd, Pb, Zn, X = S) were directly synthesized in aqueous media and at room temperature using carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt (CMC) behaving simultaneously as stabilizing and surface biofunctional ligand.
Ideally, cyclical changes in brain and plasma CORT levels should be measured simultaneously in the freely behaving animals by brain microdialysis and blood sampling (via jugular vein cannula) as described in rats (Droste et al., 2008).
As Yuste explained to me, the key goal of the project is not to map what neurons are connected to which other neurons (yielding a static "connectome"), but to visualize the action of all the individual neurons in a given organism simultaneously, as organisms behave, akin to the difference between a snapshot and a high-resolution video.
System and environment behave simultaneously because time flows for both with the same speed.
Sometimes, in practice, one would like to know how partial sums and maxima behave simultaneously in the limit; see Anderson and Turkman [11] for a discussion of an application involving extreme wind gusts and average wind speeds.
For example, Wei et al. (2012) combine elastic net regression with an expectation maximization algorithm to simultaneously cluster groups of similarly behaving compounds and infer a predictive model for each cluster.
Cross-correlations were conducted between simultaneously recorded dopamine neuron pairs when mice were freely behaving (without external stimuli) or sleeping in the homecage.
