  1. The Role of Attention in Motor Control.
    Keith R Lohse, Matt Jones, and David E Sherwood

    J Exp Psychol Gen (2013) PMID 23647310

    We propose a theory of attention in motor control, grounded in optimal control theory, wherein variability is minimized along attended aspects of the movement. Internal attention thus reduces variability in individual bodily dimensions (positions and velocities of effectors), whereas external attent...

    J Biomed Mater Res A (2013) PMID 23650144

    Improvements to clinically used biomaterials such as hydroxyapatite (HA) are of potential benefit to the patient. One modification, the addition of surface charges, has been shown to have an important role influencing cell response. In this study, porous HA scaffolds with both positi...
  3. Airborne olive pollen counts are not representative of exposure to the major olive allergen Ole e 1.
    C Galan, C Antunes, and The HIALINE working group

    We therefore simultaneously determined olive pollen and Ole e 1 in ambient air in Córdoba, Spain, and Évora, Portugal, using Hirst-type traps for pollen and high-volume cascade impactors for allergen. Pollen from different days released 12-fold different amounts of Ole e 1 per pollen (both locatio...
