Brain Talk had as its theme, different aspects of language processing in the brain. The contributions focussed on the importance of context for the neurocognitive processing of language and speech in various communicative situations. The present volume, the first in the Birgit Rausing Language program conference series, contains papers from the Brain talk conference. They have been grouped in to

The design of radio-frequency inductively-degenerated CMOS low-noise-amplifiers does not follow the guidelines for minimum noise figure. Nonetheless, state-of-the-art implementations achieve noise figure values very close to the theoretical minimum. In this brief contribution, we point out that this is due to the effect of the parasitic overlap capacitances in the MOS device acting as transconduct

A conference poster presentation about how musicians develop their rhythmic skills. By practicing different kinds of rhythmic phrases such as odd grouping, odd metres, combined metres and metric modulations they can strengthen their rhythmic sense and expand their rhythmic freedom.

This chapter examines some of the ways in which spas strive to offer their patrons a series of mass produced experiences that are framed in terms of personal wellness and serenity. In order to do this, the text begins by briefly examining the manner in which spas are organised as conceived spaces in their own promotional material. In the process, this material is placed in a historic context and i

In a large case-control study of Swedish incident type I diabetes patients and controls, 0–34 years of age, we tested the hypothesis that the GIMAP5 gene, a key genetic factor for lymphopenia in spontaneous BioBreeding rat diabetes, is associated with type I diabetes; with islet autoantibodies in incident type I diabetes patients or with age at clinical onset in incident type I diabetes patients.

ad transport of dangerous goods is due to its inherent risk associated with a potential impact far higher than the small volumes might suggest, and has therefore been the target of numerous ITS-related initiatives. However, there are few indications of actual working ITS solutions for dangerous goods. In this paper we conduct an empirical investigation of past projects and research to analyze the
