David Turnbull, in his illuminating Commentary on the Emergence and Evolution of Materials Science (Turnbull 1983), defined materials science broadly as the characterisation, understanding, and control of the structure of matter at the ultramolecular level and the relating of this structure to properties (mechanical, magnetic, electrical, etc.). That is, it is Ultramolecular Science . In professional and educational practice, however, he says that materials science focuses on the more complex features of behaviour, and especially those aspects controlled by crystal... [Pg.13]

Neuropeptide S (NPS) is a recently discovered bioactive peptide that has emerged as a new signaling molecule in the complex circuitry that modulates sleep-wakefulness and anxiety-like behavior. The peptide precursor is expressed most prominently in a novel nucleus located in the perilocus coeruleus, a brain structure with well-defined functions in arousal, stress, and anxiety. NPS was also found to induce anxiolytic-like behavior in a battery of four different tests of innate responses to stress. Infusion of NPS potently increases wakefulness and suppresses non-REM (NREM) and REM sleep (Xu et al, 2004). NPS binds to a G-protein-coupled receptor, the NPS receptor, with nanomolar affinity activation of the receptor mobilizes intracellular calcium. The NPS receptor is expressed throughout the brain, particularly in regions relevant to the modulation of sleep and waking, in the tuberomammillary region, lateral hypothalamus, and medial thalamic nuclei. [Pg.395]

A Hopf algebra emerges by a proper redefinition of the antilinear characteristics of TFD. Consider g = giti = 1,2,3,.. be an associative algebra defined on the field of the complex numbers and let g be equipped with a Lie algebra structure specified by giOgj = C gk, where 0 is the Lie product and Cfj are the structure constants (we are assuming the rule of sum over repeated indeces). Now we take g first realized by C = Ai,i = 1,2,3,.. such that the commutator [Ai,Aj is the Lie product of elements Ai,Aj G C. Consider tp and (p two representations of C, such that ip (A) (linear operators defined on a representation vector space As a consequence,... [Pg.203]
