Humans act close to the theory of opportunism‚ and are motivated by self-interests without considering the values of their actions. Therefore‚ it is obvious that when one attains power‚ the person is attracted towards

performed using two different spectrophotometers. The best sample was chosen for the next step in the experiment‚ restriction digestion‚ which had a concentration of 196.6 ug/uL. Purity analysis shows a 1.83 for the ratio of A260/A280 and a 2.15 for the ratio of A260/A230. Both of these values are within the normal range of the literature value of these ratios‚ which is an indication that this sample is pure and free of contaminants. Restriction digestion of three pure A. fischeri chDNA samples was

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NEURAL NETWORKS‚ VOL. 15‚ NO. 5‚ SEPTEMBER 2004 1063 Which Model to Use for Cortical Spiking Neurons? Eugene M. Izhikevich Abstract—We discuss the biological plausibility and computational efficiency of some of the most useful models of spiking and bursting neurons. We compare their applicability to large-scale simulations of cortical neural networks.
