1. Web-based neuromuscular simulator applied to the teaching of principles of neuroscience
INTRODUCTION: The learning of core concepts in neuroscience can be reinforced by a hands-on approach, either experimental or computer-based. In this work, we present a web-based multi-scale neuromuscular simulator that is being used as a teaching aid in a campus-wide course on the Principles of Neuroscience. METHODS: The simulator has several built-in indivi

2. Determinantes da fraqueza e propriedades contráteis da musculatura inspiratória na insuficiência cardíaca
The inspiratory muscle weakness may be present in 30-50% of outpatients with chronic heart failure, with implications for the quality of life and prognosis. However, it is unclear what clinical and behavioral characteristics that would be associated with this dysfunction. Moreover, as are unclear the molecular mechanisms leading to dysfunction of the diaphra

3. Bronchospasm and its biophysical basis in airway smooth muscle
Airways hyperresponsiveness is a cardinal feature of asthma but remains unexplained. In asthma, the airway smooth muscle cell is the key end-effector of bronchospasm and acute airway narrowing, but in just the past five years our understanding of the relationship of responsiveness to muscle biophysics has dramatically changed. It has become well established,

5. Control of time-dependent biological processes by temporally patterned input
Temporal patterning of biological variables, in the form of oscillations and rhythms on many time scales, is ubiquitous. Altering the temporal pattern of an input variable greatly affects the output of many biological processes. We develop here a conceptual framework for a quantitative understanding of such pattern dependence, focusing particularly on n
