Auditory sequence processing reveals evolutionarily conserved regions of frontal cortex in macaques and humans.

abstract：:Self-repairable materials strive to emulate curable and resilient biological tissue; however, their performance is currently insufficient for commercialization purposes because mending and toughening are mutually exclusive. Herein, we report a carbonate-type thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer that self-heals at 35 °...
