The influence of TMS of the rTPJ on attentional control and mentalizing.

Mentalizing is the powerful cognitive ability to understand others. By attributing mental states to others, we become able to explain and predict their behavior. The right temporoparietal junction (rTPJ) plays a key role in processing models of mental states.

Algorithm-Based Liquid Formulation Development Including a DoE Concept Predicts Long-Term Viral Vector Stability.

Specifically tailored amino acid-based formulations were previously shown to have a high potential to avoid stress-mediated degradation of complex molecules such as monoclonal antibodies and viral vectors. By using adenovirus 5 (Ad5) as a model, we studied whether such formulations may also efficiently protect viral vectors in thermal stress experiments and during long-term liquid storage. Algorithm-based amino acid preselection using an excipient database and subsequent application of design of experiments (DoE) in combination with a 37°C challenging model enabled the prediction of long-term storage stability of Ad5.

33-month-old children succeed in a false belief task with reduced processing demands: A replication of Setoh et al. (2016).

A recent low-inhibition false belief task showed a high success rate with 33-month-old children when response-generation demands were reduced [Setoh, Scott, & Baillargeon (2016). Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 113(47), 13360-13365]. We found correct responding in 74% of N = 58 33-month-old children, replicating the original findings.
