- 4From: Nature Neuroscience. (Vol. 3, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Monica Driscoll [1]; Nektarios Tavernarakis [1] Touch receptors are critical in nearly everything we do to interact with the world--tying shoelaces, pouring coffee, moving cursors. Touch-transducing...
- 5From: Nature Neuroscience. (Vol. 3, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedAlthough there is still no satisfying answer to the question of why we sleep, rapid progress in the last several years suggests that this may soon change. Perhaps a better understanding of the function of sleep will also...
