Abstract: In some embodiments, a method of increasing cognitive function and/or treating a disease or disorder associated with decreased cognitive function in a subject is provided. Treating a subject with an glutamate receptor agonist can include identifying the subject as an glutamate receptor agonist responder. The method can further include obtaining an electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from the subject. The method can further include measuring one or more EEG metrics, thereby identifying the subject as a glutamate receptor agonist.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method of treating a patient with an antipsychotic agent can include identifying the patient as an antipsychotic agent responder. The method can further include obtaining an electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from the patient. The method can further include measuring one or more EEG metrics, thereby identifying the patient as an antipsychotic agent responder. If the patient is an antipsychotic agent responder, the method can further include then administering the antipsychotic agent.

Abstract: Provided are methods for diagnosing the presence, type, or severity of a dementia in a human subject. The methods involve using a computer-based system to assess impairment of certain cognitive and motor functions that are indicative of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for determining shifts in the attentional state of a subject. These methods are useful for diagnosing subjects with a psychological or behavioral disorder. The invention also features methods for determining the effect of a therapy on the overall attentional state and shifts in the attentional state of a subject.

Abstract: The invention involves color magnetic resonance imaging using both a magnetic resonance property and a function of the magnetic resonance property. These enhanced color images provide greater informational content to the viewer. Applications include color imaging of estimates of T2 to distinguish between regions of a sample containing homogeneous tissue and regions containing mixtures of tissue by using spatial variation in the hue, brightness, or saturation of the colors.

Abstract: An apparatus for generating artificial light that closely simulates the intensity and spectrum of natural light and other dynamic light conditions. The apparatus includes a collection of light sources of various colors which are controlled by a computer. Attached to the computer is a sensor that measures the spectral qualities of the light produced by the light sources. The sensor sends this information to the computer which then adjusts the light sources to generate the desired light conditions.

Abstract: A signaling system for vehicles traveling in a convoy includes an external signaling system for informing nearby drivers of the convoy and an internal signaling device for communicating messages between the convoy members. Each convoy vehicle includes a signaling system. The external signaling systems can include flashing lamps that can be synchronized with other systems such that the external signaling systems for each convoy member flash at the same time. In one embodiment, the internal signaling system includes a series of buttons each for sending predetermined messages to other convoy vehicles. The internal signaling system can include a screen for displaying messages received from other convoy vehicles.
