On-line electro-oculography.

Abstract

The design and use of an on-line PDP 11/40-based system for quantitative study of ocular kinetics are described. The system can be used in neurophysiological or ophthalmological applications. Two different techniques are presented. In one, horizontal, vertical or oblique eye motion can be studied, in the other horizontal eye motion only. Several parameters of eye motion can be measured including saccadic velocity, eye movement latency and accuracy of refixation. For ophthalmological EOG applications the system allows measurement of the absolute voltage excursion corresponding to a horizontal eye movement of a specific amplitude. The system consists of five software programs and supporting signal processing equipment. The software package runs under the RSX11M executive.

Computer-aided drug design: getting the best results.

There are two major stages in the design of drug molecules: lead-molecule development and lead-molecule optimization. Whereas a variety of computational chemistry and molecular modeling (CC/MM) techniques are now routinely and successfully applied to the optimization stage of drug design, the generation of initial lead compounds has proven a more difficult problem for the CC/MM approach. Only recently has the design of lead molecules by this route become a subject of active research. This article looks at the factors which must be considered carefully when incorporating CC/MM methods into different aspects of drug-design strategies.
