In the case of our particular experimental paradigm, adjacent and/or near-adjacent cortical ensembles would appear to become temporally linked when driven simultaneously, and this temporal or functional linkage, in turn, could lead to mislocalizations between the skin sites that project to those cortical ensembles.
Insects, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals establish their own "bandwidth niches," which can be expressed as frequency (from the lowest to the highest sounds) and temporally (as when one creature vocalizes, followed by another, like exchanges between the chestnut-winged babbler and the Malaysian eared nightjar calling for mates in Borneo).
It might be objected that it is simply impossible for the temporal properties of experiences and their contents to diverge so dramatically: how could the latter be temporally extended when the former are not?
Our findings thus add further support to this view by showing that the right thalamus does not respond with different activity to audiovisual stimuli that do not match temporally, even when they do match in emotional content.
Based on ELISPOT assays, the frequency of cells circulating in the peripheral blood of the probiotic-fed pigs and responding to ASA stimulation with IFN-γ secretion tended to temporally increase when measured on study day 49 (p = 0.060) and increased on study day 70 (p = 0.049) as compared to study day 35 (Figure 7A).
Finally, peak activation of the PPC was temporally prolonged when the first cue was followed by an additional one.
Accordingly, expression of CAD in nematoblast nests is temporally delayed when compared with that of myc1 (cf. Fig. 1A,B).
We have previously demonstrated that spatial heterogeneity is more temporally stable when analysed for asymptomatic parasitaemia rather than febrile malaria (Bejon et al., 2010).
Here, we considered an annotation to be temporally-agreed only when all the temporal-related attributes of an event-predicate were consistently marked up by both annotators.
