Sense Of Number in Invertebrate Cognition
We are experimenting a novel cognitive revolution with the accumulation of evidence on the unexpected intelligence of key invertebrate species.Indeed, abstraction faculties, emotio...
Objects, Spaces and Material Culture. Gender and Politics in Early Modern European Republics (Venice, Genova, XV-XVIII centuries)
To this day, and even in Europe, gender balance in decision-making remains a goal to be achieved.This condition has historical roots, and the power of informal leadership still rem...
Attracting International Experienced Researchers in any Research Field to the Basque Country
The economic crisis and the lack of resources devoted to research and development (R&D) in Spain is a pressing issue, affecting the Basque region too, and it is aggravated by t...
Identifying molecular features of potent antibody and memory B-cell responses associated with RTS,S malaria vaccine efficacy
Malaria is the most important parasitic disease being a leading cause of death among young children, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa.In the context of the World Health Organizat...
Cytosolic Iron Delivery for Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation
Symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) carried out by legume nodules is one of the most efficient ways of introducing nitrogen in natural ecosystems and in sustainable agriculture.It re...
A Mesoscopic approach to Cross-diffusion Modelling in population dynamics
Cross-diffusion aims at modelling the influence of one species on the diffusion of another one and can be seen as an extension of the standard diffusion described by the Laplacian....
Polymer Informatics Tools for Sustainable 3D printing
Polymer informatics supports sustainable development goals by implementing versatile computational tools which allow users to move the polymer design from the laboratory to the dig...
Towards a deep knowledge of the extracellular matrix proteins functions in the Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Healthy skeletal muscle has a powerful capacity to regenerate after an injury.On the opposite, muscular dystrophies (MDs) are devastating diseases where these regenerative capaciti...
Understanding and improving choices: investigating the role of stress-related neuromodulators and psychiatric diagnoses in decision-making and precommitment
Everyday decisions, such as deciding what to eat or whether to exercise, have a profound effect on our long-term health.Both stress and a diagnosis of certain psychiatric disorders...
New perspectives on the box counting dimension of sets and measures
Fractal geometry is a young, very active and rapidly growing field of research that is connected to different areas of mathematics and the natural sciences.Roughly speaking, dimens...
An Edible Microelectrofluidic Biosensor for Gastric Enzyme Quantification
EDISENS will deliver the first edible microelectrofluidic biosensor for enzyme activity quantification in gastric fluid that the human body can digest after completing its task.Thi...
Machine learning for diagnosis of bipolar disorder: detection of physiological digital biomarkers
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic and debilitating mental disorder, that affects 2-3% of the population. It impacts quality of life, cognition, and is a leading cause of suicide a...
EPIC - ExPloring the ecohydrological Impacts of a changing Cryosphere in the Peruvian Andes
Glacier runoff is vital for the downstream populations and ecosystems of the Peruvian Andes.However previous predictions of future runoff have failed to take account of the complex...
New players in the regulation of DNA replication fork speed
Faithful eucaryotic cell division requires spatio-temporal orchestration of multiple sequential events. Among the crucial steps to providing the daughter cells with identical set o...
Exploring the contribution of hypothalamic gliosis to the metabolic and reproductive complications of hypogonadism: Translational implications for obesity-induced male hypogonadism.
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic and a serious public health threat since it greatly increases the risk of highly morbid chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, c...
Cognitive Sparse MIMO Automotive Radar with Embedded Communications: Enabling Safer Driving in Greener Environment
Automotive radar provides a 360-degree surround sensing capability under all weather conditions and makes driving safer, with or without a hand on the steering wheel, thus presenti...
The Effect of Media Multitasking on Online Prosocial and Antisocial Behavior
Digital devices and portable media platforms have become integral parts of people's lives, causing an increase in online activities and an inclination for simultaneous consump...
A novel approach for modelling the human nose-brain axis in vitro
Olfactory neurons allow circumventing the blood-brain barrier making this route particularly interesting for the non-invasive intranasal treatment of brain diseases (Alzheimer’s Di...
Characterising the microbiome and mycotoxin profiles of winter wheat varieties grown under sustainable crop protection system
During wheat colonisation, toxigenic Fusarium species produce substantial numbers of mycotoxins, which pose serious adverse health effects in human and animals. The current control...
Optimizing the Adsorption of water vapour to enhance the Sequestration of Inorganic carbon and phototrophs activity in dry Soils
Mineral carbonation is based on the reaction of CO2 with metal oxide bearing materials to precipitate insoluble carbonates, with calcium being one of the most attractive metals.Whi...
