An objective skill assessment framework for microsurgical anastomosis based on ALI scores

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao, Soheil Gholami, Torstein Ragnar Meling, Anaëlle Olivia Marie Manon

IntroductionThe current assessment and standardization of microsurgical skills are subjective, posing challenges in reliable skill evaluation. We aim to address these limitations by developing a quantitative and objective framework for accurately assessing ...

Sodium thiosulfate, a source of hydrogen sulfide, stimulates endothelial cell proliferation and neovascularization

Georges Wagnières, Jaroslava Joniová, Séverine Marguerite Urfer

Therapies to accelerate vascular repair are currently lacking. Pre-clinical studies suggest that hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter, promotes angiogenesis. Here, we hypothesized that sodium thiosulfate (STS), a clinically relevant source ...

The Appearance of the Warburg Effect in the Developing Avian Eye Characterized In Ovo: How Neurogenesis Can Remodel Neuroenergetics

Rolf Gruetter, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Laurent Brodier

PURPOSE. The avian eye is an established model for exploring mechanisms that coordinate morphogenesis and metabolism during embryonic development. Less is known, however, about trafficking of bioenergetic and metabolic signaling molecules that are involved ...

Functional analysis of RIP toxins from the Drosophila endosymbiont Spiroplasma poulsonii

Bruno Lemaitre, Florent François Masson, Juan Camilo Paredes Escobar, Mario Gonzalo Garcia Arraez

BackgroundInsects frequently live in close relationship with symbiotic bacteria that carry out beneficial functions for their host, like protection against parasites and viruses. However, in some cases, the mutualistic nature of such associations is put in ...

Designing a socially integrated mobile robot for ethological research

Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Jean-Louis Deneubourg

A robot introduced into an animal group, accepted by the animals as conspecifics, and capable of interacting with them is an ecient tool for ethological research, particularly in studies of collective and social behaviour. In this paper, we present the imp ...

In vitro modeling of complex microenvironmental regulation of stem cells

Yoji Tabata

Although stem cells hold tremendous potential for clinical applications, their in vitro manipulation remains very challenging. In vivo, stem cells reside in intricate 3D microenvironments, termed niche, in which many local and systemic extrinsic factors ar ...

Real-time, in vivo measurement of tissular pO(2) through the delayed fluorescence of endogenous protoporphyrin IX during photodynamic therapy

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Anna Maria Novello, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Filippo Piffaretti, Cédric Xavier Paulou

Tissular oxygen concentration plays a key role during photodynamic therapy (PDT). Therefore, monitoring its local oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) may help predict and/or control the outcome of a PDT treatment. The first real-time, in vivo measurements of t ...

Evolutionary plasticity of segmentation clock networks

Andrew Charles Oates

The vertebral column is a conserved anatomical structure that defines the vertebrate phylum. The periodic or segmental pattern of the vertebral column is established early in development when the vertebral precursors, the somites, are rhythmically produced ...

Animal-Robot Interaction for Ethological Studies

Alexey Gribovskiy

A robot properly introduced into an animal group, accepted by the animals, and capable of interacting with them is a very powerful tool for advanced ethological research, particularly in gregarious animals. Moreover, such robots can find an application in ...
