Some people are doctors. Some people play them on TV. Brian Meltzer could probably do both. A physician executive at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Meltzer relies on skills he learned in acting school to help manage business decisions. In the first of several essays for The Physician Executive, Meltzer explains how acting can help you become a better leader.

The distinct timescales of synaptic plasticity and neural activity dynamics play an important role in the brain's learning and memory systems. Activity-dependent plasticity reshapes neural circuit architecture, determining spontaneous and stimulus-encoding spatiotemporal patterns of neural activity. Neural activity bumps maintain short term memories of continuous parameter values, emerging in spatially organized models with short-range excitation and long-range inhibition.

Article Synopsis
- Hypomanic personality traits (HPT) are linked to higher risk for psychiatric disorders like bipolar disorder and are associated with aggressive behaviors, yet the underlying neuropsychological mechanisms are not fully understood.
- The study used psychometric network analysis to identify key factors (Behavioral Inhibition System and mood volatility) that connect HPT to aggression, finding that mood volatility positively correlates with aggression, with BIS acting as a mediator.
- Further imaging studies revealed distinct functions of the dorsal and ventral sensorimotor cortices in processing rewards, and resting-state imaging confirmed these regions' connections to different brain networks, highlighting the importance of these circuits in mediating the relationship between mood volatility, aggression, and BIS.
Medical imaging systems are commonly assessed and optimized by the use of objective measures of image quality (IQ). The performance of the ideal observer (IO) acting on imaging measurements has long been advocated as a figure-of-merit to guide the optimization of imaging systems. For computed imaging systems, the performance of the IO acting on imaging measurements also sets an upper bound on task-performance that no image reconstruction method can transcend.
