Neuroethology - Biology 419/580 Bowling Green State University, Spring 2004 Neuroscience and the Study of Behavior Outline: Study of Behavior Comparative Psychology Ethology Neuroscience Neuroethology History : Neuroscience Stone Age surgeons cut holes into the skull, probably to release "evil spirits" as the cause of headaches or strange behaviors Aegyptians : embalmed the body but carefully extracted the brain from the skull and - trashed it - deeming it unnecessary for an after life Greeks : Noting the rich vascular supply of the brain, Aristotle concluded that it had to be an organ to cool the blood Romans : As doctor of Roman gladiators Galen obviously noted the behavioral deficits that arise from traumatic injuries to head and brain. Life ( pneuma , i.e. breath) takes three forms: the brain forms the center of sensory perceptions and movement; the heart regulates blood and body temperature and the liver is the center of nutrition and metabolism. On epilepsy he writes: " In all forms it is the brain which is diseased; either the sickness originates in the brain itself,... or it rises in sympathy into the brain from the cardiac orifice of the stomach... Seldom, however, it can have its origin in any part of the body... and then rises to the head in a way which the patient can feel... "

Home Products Downloads Readings ... Privacy A Holographic View of Reality David S. Walonick, Ph.D. For thousands of years, philosophers have pondered our role in the universe. The study of social structures began as the study of our souls. Only by turning inward could we unravel the mysteries of our institutions. Society was viewed as a reflection and extension of our inner-selves. A few hundred years ago, Descartes introduced the scientific method of inquiry and dramatically changed the way that we searched for answers. The scientific method stressed the individuality and separateness of things. Institutions could be understood by dissecting and analyzing the individual components. The inquirer was simply a passive observer of external phenomena. This paradigm went unchallenged for over three hundred years. The twentieth century began with Einstein's theory of relativity. The observer was no longer external to the phenomena being studied. In fact, all patterns could be described only relative to the observer. At first, Einstein's theory was confined to the physical world, however, twenty years later, von Bertalanffy extended the idea of relativity to the social sciences. General systems theory could be used to examine both the physical and social sciences. The role of the mind in the construction of reality became an issue of concern. In fact, for some scientists, it had now become a central theme.

69. The Hungary Page - Hungarian Nobel Prize Winners georg von Békésy was born in Budapest, Hungary, on June 3,1899, the son ofAlexander von Békésy, a diplomat, and his wife, Paula. http://www.hungarian-history.hu/nobel/bekesy.htm

University of Berne . After a short military service he received his Ph.D. in Physics in 1923 from the University of Budapest. Later on he entered the services of the Hungarian Post Office in Budapest where he stayed until 1946. He worked one year at the Central Laboratory of Siemens and Halske A.G. in Berlin, at that time one of the centers in the development of telecommunication. During vacations he spent his free time in different workshops learning how to use a file for many hours without hurting the hands. His work in the research laboratory of the Hungarian Post Offce was concerned mainly with problems of long-distance telephone transmission. The friendly and efficient atmosphere of this laboratory made it possible for him to spend considerable time in the study of the ear as a main component of the transmission system. Soon he became a nuisance to the autopsy rooms of the hospitals and the mechanical workshops of the Post Office. There they did not like to find their drill press full of human-bone dust in the morning. But the wonderful laboratory spirit helped to overcome all difficulties, except those produced by the destructions of World War II. During the years 1939-1946 he was also Professor of Experimental Physics at the University of Budapest. He left Hungary in 1946 for Sweden, where he was a guest of the

Visualization of Multi - Part Music (Acoustics and Perception) Werner A. Deutsch (Austrian Academy of Sciences, Acoustics Research Laboratory) and Franz Födermayr (Institute of Musicology, University of Vienna) Introduction Frequency analysis of musical sounds came up to practical applications with the development of the Sound Spectrograph (Koenig, Dunn and Lacey, 1946) . From the beginning much care has been taken to choice the frequency resolution and the time window properly in order to highlite important acoustical features as well as perceptual ones. It has been demonstrated by several studies ( i.e. Potter, Kopp and Green, 1947 ) that the aural presentation of speech (and music) and its simultaneous graphic representation produces significantly deeper insight into the generation of acoustical signals and the ongoing perception as listening alone can provide. Graf (1963) recognized the enormous potential of spectrographic analysis for applications in ethnomusicology. His theoretical concept assumes the acoustical signal to be the primary stimulus which is processed by the human psychophysiological system very much in the same way, even in different ethnic populations. What makes the various differences in interpretation, reception and perception under very similar acoustical stimulus representations prominent, is due to the influence of the so called social-cultural context in which music plays an important role. Production Models The pertinent acoustic analysis of musical signals with acoustic laboratory methods (which today can be performed by using a specially equipped laptop computer.) produces basically a complete set of acoustical parameters which can be displayed as graphical images of the spectral content, i.e. the physics of the musical signal in real time or of those performances which have been recorded in advance. The analysis data can be used as input to comprehensive

Bruce Fellman, a banjo picker unencumbered by perfect pitch, is the managing editor of the Yale Alumni Magazine. This is Your Brain in Tune Beethoven and Jimi Hendrix, Mozart and Nat King Cole: All had the rare and mysterious musical ability called perfect pitch. Neuroscientist David Ross is investigating why their brains allowed them to recognize and reproduce tones unerringly, and why the rest of us can't. September/October 2003 by Bruce Fellman Samantha Foggle had just turned three in June of 2000 when her family moved from Massachusetts to Connecticut, and the appliances started to sing. In the course of the move the family had acquired an upright piano, and in a spare moment between unpacking boxes, Samantha's mother, Lili, plunked out a melody. "I don't really know how to play we're not a musical family but I could manage 'Do-Re-Mi,' from The Sound of Music," Lili says. Samantha was delighted. "A few days later, I was in the kitchen heating food in the microwave, and it was humming," recalls Lili. "Samantha said, 'It's an F, Mommy!' I ran over to the piano and played that note. Sure enough, it was an F." For other children and their amazed parents, it's the hair dryer singing a B-flat, or the can opener running at G. An uncanny talent for naming the pitch of a household appliance is often the first sign that a child possesses one of the rarest and strangest of musical gifts: the ability to identify any tone or to reproduce it without needing to compare it with another tone for reference.

75. Chap VI observation of the mechanical vibration patterns of the inner ear by theHungarian physicist, georg von bekesy, a feat which earned him the Nobel Prize. http://www.neurophys.wisc.edu/h&b/textbook/chap-6.html

BACK VI. THE INNER EAR: THE COCHLEA Objectives: At the end of this section you should be able to: 1. Describe the structure of the Organ of Corti, including the following: Reissner's membrane, stria vascularis, tectorial membrane, hair cells, supporting cells, tunnel of Corti, VIII nerve fibers, spiral ganglion, basilar membrane, osseous spiral lamina. 2. Describe the traveling wave pattern of vibration on the basilar membrane. Know the physical properties of the cochlear partition that are responsible for this form of mechanical displacement. 3. Describe the excitation process: how basilar membrane vibration leads to depolarization of the hair cells and stimulation of auditory nerve fibers. Know the structural arrangements in the organ of Corti that make this possible. 4. Describe the innervation pattern within the cochlea. ... 6. State what is meant by otoacoustic emissions. Objective 1: Structure of the cochlea Figure VI-1 illustrates increasingly expanding cross sections of the cochlea. In Figures VI-1B and C are seen the scala vestibuli and scala tympani separated by the cochlear partition, except in the apical turn where the two scalae are in continuity via the helicotrema. Within the modiolus is seen the spiral ganglion. The central processes of spiral ganglion neurons form the cochlear nerve and exit the temporal bone in the internal acoustic meatus. The cochlear partition, which includes the endolymph-filled scala media, is bounded by Reissner's membrane and the basilar membrane, on which sits the auditory receptor organ, the organ of Corti.

Tutorial article on cochlear implants that appeared in the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine , pages 101-130, September 1998. Introduction to cochlear implants Philipos C. Loizou [Download article (13 MB)] The purpose of this article is to present an overview of various signal processing techniques that have been used for cochlear prosthesis over the past 25 years. The signal processing strategies described below will be only a subset of the many that have been developed for cochlear prosthesis. Information on other signal processing strategies may be found in the excellent review by Wilson [1] as well as in [2][3][4]. 1 Background The present section reviews background material necessary for understanding cochlear prosthesis. The first section gives a brief overview of the type of information contained in the acoustic signal and its relation to speech perception. The following sections briefly describe how the auditory system works, how it analyzes the speech signal and what causes hearing loss. An understanding of how our auditory system works is central to the development of a successful cochlear implant. After all, it is important to know how a normal auditory system functions before we can fix a system that is damaged. 1.1 The speech signal

Premios Nobel de Fisiología y Medicina Premio Nobel : premios concedidos cada año a personas, entidades u organismos por sus aportaciones extraordinarias realizadas durante el año anterior en los campos de la Física, Química, Fisiología y Medicina, Literatura, Paz y Economía. Otorgados por primera vez el 10 de diciembre de 1901, los premios están financiados por los intereses devengados de un fondo en fideicomiso contemplado en el testamento del químico, inventor y filántropo sueco Alfred Bernhard Nobel. Además de una retribución en metálico, el ganador del Premio Nobel recibe también una medalla de oro y un diploma con su nombre y el campo en que ha logrado tal distinción. Los jueces pueden dividir cada premio entre dos o tres personas, aunque no está permitido repartirlo entre más de tres. Si se considerara que más de tres personas merecen el premio, se concedería de forma conjunta. El fondo está controlado por un comité de la Fundación Nobel, compuesto por seis miembros en cada mandato de dos años: cinco elegidos por los administradores de los organismos contemplados en el testamento, y el sexto nombrado por el Gobierno sueco. Los seis miembros serán ciudadanos suecos o noruegos. De acuerdo con la voluntad de Nobel, se han establecido institutos separados en Suecia y Noruega para favorecer los objetivos de la Fundación con el fin de potenciar cada uno de los cinco campos en los que se conceden los galardones. En 1968, para conmemorar su 300 aniversario, el Banco Nacional de Suecia creó el Premio de Ciencias Económicas Banco de Suecia en Memoria de Alfred Nobel, que sería otorgado por la Real Academia Sueca de las Ciencias (conocida con anterioridad por el nombre de Academia Sueca de las Ciencias). La Real Academia Sueca de las Ciencias concede también los premios de Física y Química.
