Thalamus and consciousness: a systematic review on thalamic nuclei associated with consciousness by Martina Cacciatore, Francesca Giulia Magnani, Filippo Barbadoro, Camilla Ippoliti, Mario Stanziano, Mario Stanziano, Letizia Clementi, Anna Nigri, Lorenzo Nanetti, Silvia Marino, Fabio La Porta, Lucia Francesca Lucca, Francesco Prada, Francesco Prada, Matilde Leonardi

“…Despite the high heterogeneity characterizing the adopted methodologies (e.g., brain stimulation, anesthesia, brain damage), as well as the study population (e.g., either healthy and pathological humans or animals) across studies, the greatest amount of evidence supported a key role of CM-Pf for the generation, modulation, and maintenance of the level of consciousness.DiscussionThough there is more research on the role of intralaminar nuclei, there is proportionally more positive evidence supporting these nuclei (particularly the CM-Pf) as key nodes in the network underlying consciousness compared to other thalamic nuclei. …”

The Sensitivity of Characteristics of Large Scale Baroclinic Unstable Waves in Southern Hemisphere to the Underlying Climate by Sergei Soldatenko, Chris Tingwell

“…Two types of waves are considered: synoptic scale waves and planetary scale (ultralong) waves based on an Eady-type model and model with vertically averaged primitive equations. Sensitivity functions are obtained that estimate the impact of variations in σ0 and Λ on the growth rate and other characteristics of unstable waves and demonstrate that waves belonging to the short-wave part of the spectrum of unstable waves are more sensitive to changes in the static stability parameter than waves belonging to the long-wave part of the spectrum. …”

Le Parménide de Platon : une cosmologie sans kosmos ? by Gabrièle Wersinger Taylor

“…It is so because it fails to reconcile the contraries in a selective and musical “sumplokè” capable of building a kosmos involving a mathematical model (logistikè) that could establish a medium between the opposites. Parmenides’ model functions as a repellent for this kosmological model, the inspiration of which is Pythagorean (whether it is Plato’s fiction or not is not a question we shall enter here) because, among all, it lacks of harmony and music by privileging diakrisis and the goddess Necessity, associated to parturitions incapable of generating a kosmos.…”
