Forty Years of Clathrin-coated vesicles

The purification of coated vesicles and the discovery of clathrin by Barbara Pearse in 1975 was a landmark in cell biology. Over the past 40 years, work from many labs has uncoveredthe molecular details of clathrin and its associated proteins, including how they assemble into a coated vesicle and how they select cargo. Unexpected connections have been found with signalling, development, neuronal transmission, infection, immunity, and genetic disorders. But there are still a number of unanswered questions, including how clathrin-mediated trafficking is regulated and how the machinery evolved.This is the author accepted manuscript.

Digital media availability has surged over the past decade. Because of a lack of comprehensive measurement tools, this rapid growth in access to digital media is accompanied by a scarcity of research examining the family media context and sociocognitive outcomes. There is also little cross-cultural research in families with young children. Modern media are mobile, interactive, and often short in duration, making them difficult to remember when caregivers respond to surveys about media use. The Comprehensive Assessment of Family Media Exposure (CAFE) Consortium has developed a novel tool to measure household media use through a web-based questionnaire, time-use diary, and passive-sensing app installed on family mobile devices. The goal of developing a comprehensive assessment of family media exposure was to take into account the contextual factors of media use and improve upon the limitations of existing self-report measures, while creating a consistent, scalable, and cost-effective tool. The CAFE tool captures the content and context of early media exposure and addresses the limitations of prior media measurement approaches. Preliminary data collected using this measure have been integrated into a shared visualization platform. In this perspective article, we take a tools-of-the-trade approach (Oakes, 2010) to describe four challenges associated with measuring household media exposure in families with young children: measuring attitudes and practices; capturing content and context; measuring short bursts of mobile device usage; and integrating data to capture the complexity of household media usage. We illustrate how each of these challenges can be addressed with preliminary data collected with the CAFE tool and visualized on our dashboard. We conclude with future directions including plans to test reliability, validity, and generalizability of these measures

Mentaliseringsförmåga hos barn med tidiga Cochleära implantat : Rapport till Hörselforskningsfonden (anslag B 2007/03)

Rapporten sammanfattar resultaten från en studie kring mentaliseringsförmågan hos barn med cochleaimplantat (CI) som genomförts med stöd av Hörselforskningsfonden. Totalt deltog 16 barn (9 pojkar) där den yngsta deltagaren var 4:3 år och den äldsta 9:6 år. Hälften av barnen hade fått sitt första implantat innan 2:3 års ålder och hälften senare. Resultaten visar att de barn som fått implantatet i tidig ålder klarade 45 procent av de undersökta mentaliseringsuppgifterna medan barnen som fått implantat vid senare ålder klarade knappt 19 procent. Resultatet bör emellertid tolkas med försiktighet då gruppen är liten och dessutom heterogen. Fynden motiverar fortsatta studier på en större grupp barn

Imitative reactions among 14-21 days old infants

Imitative reactions in 11 infants, 14-21 days were observed. Stimuli were presented by the infant's mother, who protruded her ongue, opened her mouth, or interacted spontaneously. No conclusive overall group effect of the modeled action were found. However, when the responses of the infants were matched with the mothers' judgments concerning whether imitation had occurred, 6 infants showed imitative responses. It is concluded that observations on early imitation is influenced by individual differences between infants and that there may exist two different subgroups: High and low imitatin

Neonatal Imitation, Intersubjectivity, and Children With Atypical Development : Do Observations on Autism and Down Syndrome Change Our Understanding?

Almost all studies on neonatal imitation to date seem to have focused on typically developing children, and we thus lack information on the early imitative abilities of children who follow atypical developmental trajectories. From both practical and theoretical perspectives, these abilities might be relevant to study in children who develop a neuropsychiatric diagnosis later on or in infants who later show impaired ability to imitate. Theoretical in the sense that it will provide insight into the earliest signs of intersubjectivity—i.e., primary intersubjectivity—and how this knowledge might influence our understanding of children following atypical trajectories of development. Practical in the sense that it might lead to earlier detection of certain disabilities. In the present work, we screen the literature for empirical studies on neonatal imitation in children with an Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or Down syndrome (DS) as well as present an observation of neonatal imitation in an infant that later was diagnosed with autism and a re-interpretation of previously published data on the phenomenon in a small group of infants with DS. Our findings suggest that the empirical observations to date are too few to draw any definite conclusions but that the existing data suggests that neonatal imitation can be observed both in children with ASD and in children with DS. Thus, neonatal imitation might not represent a useful predictor of a developmental deficit. Based on current theoretical perspectives advocating that neonatal imitation is a marker of primary intersubjectivity, we propose tentatively that an ability to engage in purposeful exchanges with another human being exists in these populations from birth.Funding: Sven Jerring Foundation; Claes Groschinskys Foundation, Sweden; Swedish Council for Working Life and Social ResearchSwedish Research CouncilSwedish Research Council for Health Working Life &amp; Welfare (Forte) [2008-0875]; Swedish Research CouncilSwedish Research CouncilEuropean Commission [2011-1913]; Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and WelfareSwedish Research CouncilSwedish Research Council for Health Working Life &amp; Welfare (Forte) [2018-01840]; Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Foundation (MAW) [2018.0084]</p
