Cortical Oscillations in Health and Disease

By: Roger Traub, MD,Miles Whittington, PhD

This book first reviews the case that brain oscillations not only are important for cognition, as long suspected, but also play a part in the expression of signs and symptoms of neuropsychiatric disorders. The cellular mechanisms of many of the clinically relevant oscillations have been studied by the authors and their colleagues, using in vitro slice methods as well as detailed computer simulations. A surprising insight is that gap junctions between principal neurons play an absolutely critical role in so many types of oscillation in neuronal populations; oscillations are not just the result of properties of individual neurons and their synaptic connections. Furthermore, the way in which gap junctions produce oscillations in the cortex is novel, involving as it does global properties of networks, rather than just the time constants of membrane currents. This insight has implications for therapeutics as well as for our understanding of normal brain functions.

Neuronal Networks of the Hippocampus

By: Roger D. Traub,Richard Miles

The questions of how a large population of neurons in the brain functions, how synchronized firing of neurons is achieved, and what factors regulate how many and which neurons fire under different conditions form the central theme of this book. Important neurological techniques for the physiological reconstruction of a large biological neural network are presented.

Proceeedings of Medical Informatics Congress (MIC 2004) & 5th Belgian E-Health Conference

By: Francis H. Roger France

This book describes a follow up of research projects and the development of standards for e-Health in Belgium and in the Netherlands. This publication covers timely areas such as nursing and care process, the electronic patient record and knowledge bases, as well as ICT assessment. Both the MIC and the Belgium e-Health Conference share new trends in health informatics and present many timely ideas and practical proposals. They are directed to health care professionals who are leading the transformation of health care by using information and knowledge. A general introduction to the work of this Federal Commission in Belgium has been published in 2002, this 2002 volume, titles E-Health in Belgium and in the Netherlands appeared as volume 93 in the series Studies in Health Technology and Informatics.

Catholic Social Learning

Educating the Faith that Does Justice

By: Roger C. Bergman

The canon for Catholic social teaching spreads to six hundred pages, yet fewer than two pages are devoted to Catholic social learning or pedagogy. In this long-needed book, Roger Bergman begins to correct that gross imbalance. He asks: How do we educate ("lead out") the faith that does justice? How is commitment to social justice provoked and sustained over a lifetime? To address these questions, Bergman weaves what he has learned from thirty years as a faith-that-does-justice educator with the best of current scholarship and historical authorities. He reflects on personal experience; the experience of Church leaders, lay activists, and university students; and the few words the tradition itself has to say about a pedagogy for justice. Catholic Social Learning explores the foundations of this pedagogy, demonstrates its practical applications, and illuminates why and how it is fundamental to Catholic higher education. Part I identifies personal encounters with the poor and marginalized as key to stimulating a hunger and thirst for justice. Part II presents three applications of Catholic social learning: cross-cultural immersion as illustrated by Creighton University's Semestre Dominicano program; community-based service learning; and the teaching of moral exemplars such as Dorothy Day, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., and Archbishop Oscar Romero. Part III then elucidates how a pedagogy for justice applies to the traditional liberal educational mission of the Catholic university, and how it can be put into action. Catholic Social Learning is both a valuable, practical resource for Christian educators and an important step forward in the development of a transformative pedagogy.
