Digital reconstruction of the mammalian spinal cord: from anatomical reference volume to cell type atlas of the mouse spinal cord
The spinal cord is an elongated nervous structure that together with the brain forms the central nervous system. It relays sensory and motor information between the brain and the body, thus controlling most somatic and autonomic body functions. In recent y ...
EPFL2023Differential Impact of Brain Network Efficiency on Poststroke Motor and Attentional Deficits
Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Gabriel Girard, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Philipp Johannes Koch, Philip Egger, Andéol Geoffroy Cadic-Melchior
Background:Most studies on stroke have been designed to examine one deficit in isolation; yet, survivors often have multiple deficits in different domains. While the mechanisms underlying multiple-domain deficits remain poorly understood, network-theoretic ...
2023Puckered and JNK signaling in pioneer neurons coordinates the motor activity of the Drosophila embryo
Central nervous system organogenesis is a complex process that obeys precise architectural rules. The impact that nervous system architecture may have on its functionality remains, however, relatively unexplored. To clarify this problem, we analyze the dev ...
Berlin2023Pum2 and TDP-43 refine area-specific cytoarchitecture post-mitotically and modulate translation of Sox5, Bcl11b, and Rorb mRNAs in developing mouse neocortex
In the neocortex, functionally distinct areas process specific types of information. Area identity is established by morphogens and transcriptional master regulators, but downstream mechanisms driving area-specific neuronal specification remain unclear. He ...
eLIFE SCIENCES PUBL LTD2022Supervised Learning With Perceptual Similarity for Multimodal Gene Expression Registration of a Mouse Brain Atlas
Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Daniel Keller, Huanxiang Lu, Francesco Casalegno, Csaba Erö
The acquisition of high quality maps of gene expression in the rodent brain is of fundamental importance to the neuroscience community. The generation of such datasets relies on registering individual gene expression images to a reference volume, a task en ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2021Clinical connectome fingerprints of cognitive decline
Enrico Amico, Emahnuel Troisi Lopez
Brain connectome fingerprinting is rapidly rising as a novel influential field in brain network analysis. Yet, it is still unclear whether connectivity fingerprints could be effectively used for mapping and predicting disease progression from human brain d ...
2021Miniature neurotransmission is required to maintain Drosophila synaptic structures during ageing
Olivier Burri, Evelyne Ruchti, Brian Donal McCabe, Soumya Banerjee, Wei Jiao
The decline of neuronal synapses is an established feature of ageing accompanied by the diminishment of neuronal function, and in the motor system at least, a reduction of behavioural capacity. Here, we have investigated Drosophila motor neuron synaptic te ...
NATURE RESEARCH2021A Signal Peak Separation Index for axisymmetric B-tensor encoding
Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Marco Pizzolato, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Gaëtan Olivier D Rensonnet, Benoît Macq
Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) has recently seen a rising interest in planar, spherical and general B-tensor encodings. Some of these sequences have aided traditional linear encoding in the estimation of white matter microstructural features, generally by ...
Springer2021Drone-ready robotic gripper powered by shape memory alloys
For this project, the goal is to design a flexure-based gripper mechanism actuated by a Shape-Memory Alloy spring (SMA) and to be mounted on a drone. While being complex to control precisely and having a very small bandwith, SMA actuators show a formidable ...
2021Ultrasound Stimulations Induce Prolonged Depolarization and Fast Action Potentials in Leech Neurons
Silvestro Micera, Théo Lemaire
Objective: Ultrasound (US) stimulation carries the promise of a selective, reversible, and non-invasive modulation of neural activity without the need for genetic manipulation of neural structures. However, the mechanisms of US-induced generation of action ...
