Simultaneous Quantitation of Cationic and Non-ionic Contrast Agents in Articular Cartilage Using Synchrotron MicroCT Imaging

Early diagnosis of acute cartilage injuries enables monitoring of disease progression and improved treatment option planning to prevent post-traumatic osteoarthritis. In contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT), the changes in cationic agent diffusion ...

T-cell surface modification with synthetic nanomaterials for cell-mediated delivery to the central nervous system

Maxime Ayer

The future of medicine lies in therapeutic approaches that can specifically target sites of disease and induce a localized and effective therapeutic effect. Cell-mediated delivery, especially using cells of the circulatory repertoire such as T lymphocytes, ...

Big walkers over non-walking drivers: a walking-related metric for evaluating the success of transportation and public health policies

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

From the point of view of public health and the environment, it can be argued that people who spontaneously walk great distances display a desirable behaviour, whereas those who drive a car without any walking in public space do not. A suggested metric can ...

Rich Locomotion Skills with the Oncilla Robot

Auke Ijspeert, Massimo Vespignani, Alexander Spröwitz, Mostafa Ajallooeian, Peter Eckert, Alexandre Tuleu

We are motivated to better understand how adaptive locomotion (rough terrain locomotion, turning, gait transition, etc) can be realized using a quadrupedal platform with constrained resources. These constraints include computational power limitation, no ac ...

Benefits of an Active Spine Supported Bounding Locomotion With a Small Compliant Quadruped Robot

Auke Ijspeert, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Alexander Spröwitz, Alexandre Tuleu

We studied the effect of the control of an active spine versus a fixed spine, on a quadruped robot run- ning in bound gait. Active spine supported actuation led to faster locomotion, with less foot sliding on the ground, and a higher stability to go straig ...

A scalable electro-magnetic communication system for underwater swarms

Felix Stephan Schill

Scalable, reliable underwater communication is still a major challenge limiting the deployment of large-scale cooperative underwater systems, such as swarms of AUVs, which generally rely on frequent updates from surrounding units for control and mission ob ...

Sensory feedback plays a significant role in generating walking gait and in gait transition in salamanders: a simulation study

Auke Ijspeert, Alexander Kozlov, Andrej Bicanski, Jérémie Knüsel

Here, we investigate the role of sensory feedback in gait generation and transition by using a three-dimensional, neuro-musculo-mechanical model of a salamander with realistic physical parameters. Activation of limb and axial muscles were driven by neural ...

Comparison of Models for Olfactometer Data

Anthony Christopher Davison, Ingrid Ricard

Olfactometer experiments are used to study the responses of arthropods to potential attractants, for purposes such as understanding natural defenses of plants against their herbivores. Such experiments typically lead to multivariate data consisting of smal ...

Acidophilic bacteria in Deep Groundwaters of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin after Extensive Uranium Leaching

Pierre Rossi

The Stráž pod Ralskem region is a part of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin. The geological profile of the site consists of Quaternary river sediments, Middle Turonian sandstone, Lower Turonian siltstone and Cenomanian collector formed by friable sandstone con ...

Distinct Roles and Regulations for Hoxd Genes in Metanephric Kidney Development

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany

Hox genes encode homeodomain-containing proteins that control embryonic development in multiple contexts. Up to 30 Hox genes, distributed among all four clusters, are expressed during mammalian kidney morphogenesis, but functional redundancy between them h ...
