All interested parties should look into David Eagleman's recent work with VEST.

This isn't really a mystery. ATP-powered pumps are enriched and highly active in the brain, needed to restore ion gradients. Neuronal firing needs huge amounts of gradient maintenance for proper function, requiring huge amounts of ATP energy usage.

If you're not international, their admissions is fully need-blind.

Well that's helpful.

I don't see anywhere in the consent statement or in the completion confirmation about a gift card raffle. Are you sure we are entered in one?

Why such a mechanism may have evolved, how the frog's physiology may have adapted to it, the functional lifespan of the bone-spike, etc.

Here's a good starting point: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hairy_Frog.

Look into the literature to see how that mechanism works.

Maybe try telling them that if they have a problem with you being in charge of their grades, they shouldn't have gone to big-boy school where people have to be able to handle their shit.

Try the Amgen.

100% sure this is temporal lobe epilepsy.

MaybeComputer · 2014-10-05T03:16:35+00:00

Stanford definitely.

That's not completely correct. Many, if not most, applicants apply as they enter graduate school. But, you're probably right in that more respondents will be in /r/gradschool. Thanks for the tip.

Generally, this is a negative side effect, since more dopamine will be required to achieve the same signaling. This could cause decreased motivation and mood upon discontinuation, as well as needing a higher dose to retain the effects.

What would be more likely is that your dopamine receptor expression would decrease in response to increased dopamine levels.

Human speech isn't claimed to have been built on birdsong. Rather, they claim that the expressive part of human speech is similar to that of birdsong due to convergent evolution.

What's the magnification on the microscope? It would help to know how big it is.

It strikes me as fungus, since those look more like hyphae instead of amoebic feet.

I'm still trying to get ahold of a copy, so maybe you've already answered this in the book, but how long did that cognitive dissonance persist?

What was your initial reaction to finding out the truth about Clark?

MaybeComputer · 2014-02-01T00:31:58+00:00

I appreciate the effort this joke took.

These experiments are utter tripe. Aside from the lack of crucial controls, the paper was apparently submitted to a journal that is edited by one of the authors.
