Given the global dominance of American movies, they play a significant role in presenting U.S.ideology and culture to the world, thus raising concern of undermining domestic culture.This paper investigates whether trade shapes culture by studying the impact of imported American movies on Chinese cultural values measured by Hofstede Index.The result

A new approach for determining phase response curves reveals that Purkinje cells can act as perfect integrators.

Cerebellar Purkinje cells display complex intrinsic dynamics.They fire spontaneously, exhibit bistability, and via mutual network interactions are involved in the generation of high frequency oscillations and travelling waves of activity.To probe the dynamical properties of Purkinje cells we measured their phase response curves (PRCs).PRCs quantify
