Resonant Breathwork As Multimodal Vagal–Interoceptive Modulation: An Empirical Synthesis Of Non-Invasive Vns, Breathing-Driven Interoception And Respiratory Tools, Piper Hutson, James Hutson
Faculty Scholarship
Resonant Breathwork is proposed as a layered, measurable intervention that modulates vagal activity and interoceptive processing through acoustic vocalization, respiratory mechanics, and biofeedback. This review synthesizes human empirical studies from 2022–2025 across five domains: (1) noninvasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation and acoustic or vocal vagal engagement; (2) interoception targets modulated by breathing; (3) respiratory rehabilitation tools, including oscillatory positive expiratory pressure and inspiratory muscle training; (4) virtual or augmented reality breath biofeedback; and (5) neuroimaging of high ventilation breathwork with music. Evidence shows taVNS can acutely increase vagal indices, with effects contingent on frequency and pulse width, while paced …
Effects Of Temperature And Oxygen Stress On Two Populations Of Olympia Oysters (Ostrea Lurida) From Central California,

Effects Of Temperature And Oxygen Stress On Two Populations Of Olympia Oysters (Ostrea Lurida) From Central California, Buyanzaya Buyanurt
Master's Theses
Olympia oysters (Ostrea lurida) are the only native oyster species to the North American West Coast. A once thriving species, O. lurida populations have dramatically declined over time due to factors such as overharvesting, habitat degradation, and the introduction of invasive predators. Although their populations are still present in estuaries along their habitat range, many of these same stressors persist today, preventing the re-establishment of dense oyster beds and hindering recovery of populations. Among these current day stressors, a major concern are the impacts of climate change, specifically warming water temperatures and the increased frequency of hypoxic events. …
Rebound Bursting Selectively Enables Fast Dynamics In Dopamine Midbrain Neurons Projecting To The Dorsolateral Striatum,

Rebound Bursting Selectively Enables Fast Dynamics In Dopamine Midbrain Neurons Projecting To The Dorsolateral Striatum, Strahinja Stojanovic, Christopher J. Knowlton, Richard Egger-Mackrodt, Johanna Mankel, Josef Shin, Stephan Lammel, Carmen C. Canavier, Jochen Roeper

Dopamine (DA) midbrain neurons are involved in a wide array of key brain functions including movement control and reward-based learning. They are also critical for major brain disorders such as Parkinson's disease or schizophrenia. DA neurons projecting to distinct striatal territories are diverse with regard to their molecular makeup and cellular physiology, which are likely to contribute to the observed differences in temporal DA dynamics. Among these regions, the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) displays the fastest DA dynamics, which might control the moment-to-moment vigor and variability of voluntary movements. However, the underlying mechanisms for these DLS-specific fast DA fluctuations are unresolved. …

Chronic alcohol misuse is the leading cause of non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of alcohol-associated cardiomyopathy (ACM), particularly regarding sex-specific susceptibility and mitochondrial contributions, are not fully known. In this study, we utilized a preclinical model of chronic + binge ethanol consumption to investigate sex differences in disease severity and mitochondrial function. Male and female C57BL/6J mice were fed ethanol or control liquid diets for 30 days, with 2 binge episodes on days 10 and 30. Cardiac morphology was assessed via echocardiography and cardiac function via left ventricular pressure-volume catheterization. Mitochondrial function was evaluated ex …

International Journal of Exercise Science 18(8): 1286-1297, 2025. https://doi.org/10.70252/QCAG3602 Small-sided games (SSG) are often used as a multifunctional form of specific training that allows development of various key components during soccer training. The main goal of this research was to determine the differences in internal and external load of different small-sided games (SSG) during preseason. The secondary goal was to analyze specific technical demands during these SSG. Twelve players of the First Croatian Junior League (U19) participated in this research in the fourth week of the preparatory period for the competitive season 2019/2020. Testing was conducted on two separate days …

Sixty-three young males (mean age: 21.3 ± 2.1 years; body height: 183 ± 6.5 cm; body weight: 77 ± 9.3 kg) were enrolled in the study. Running drill performance was recorded on an athletics track using high-speed cameras and evaluated based on predefined criteria and a scoring system. Reliability was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and coefficients …

Global Impact Of Covid-19 Pandemic On Higher Education In Physiology, Sean Mahajan, Santanu De
FDLA Journal
The Coronavirus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic disrupted the higher education sector worldwide in several disciplines, especially those in healthcare as well as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) that require active, experiential learning via practical application of concepts centered around physiology. Dynamic instructional and technological interventions took place rapidly in an effort to minimize the adverse repercussions of moving away from traditional means of education in these critical scientific fields. COVID-19 necessitated administrators, faculty, students, and interns at colleges, universities, medical/healthcare science programs and residencies to pursue teaching, learning, and assessment of physiology courses/curricula through innovative strategies without compromising …
