Continental-Scale Footprint of Balancing and Positive Selection in a Small Rodent (Microtus arvalis)

Genetic adaptation to different environmental conditions is expected to lead to large differences between populations at selected loci, thus providing a signature of positive selection. Whereas balancing selection can maintain polymorphisms over long evolu ...

On the biomechanics of seedling anchorage

Paolo Perona, Benoît Crouzy, Katharina Maria Edmaier

We propose a minimal model for the response of vegetation to pullout constraints at early development stage. We try to capture both the average mechanical properties of the root system and the stochastic component of the uprooting process of seedlings. We ...

Investigation of Polymer Thick-film Piezoresistors for Medical Wrist Rehabilitation and Artificial Knee Load Sensors

Peter Ryser, Eric Meurville, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq, Matteo Simoncini, Simon Emery

Readily-available and low-cost commercial polymer-based composite materials, such as standard epoxy-fibreglass printed circuit board (PCB) substrates and resin-carbon thick-film piezoresistors, were evaluated as a solution for medical force sensors, such a ...

Rapid Intrahost Evolution of Human Cytomegalovirus Is Shaped by Demography and Positive Selection

Jeffrey David Jensen

Populations of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a large DNA virus, are highly polymorphic in patient samples, which may allow for rapid evolution within human hosts. To understand HCMV evolution, longitudinally sampled genomic populations from the urine and p ...

A first top partner hunter's guide

Riccardo Rattazzi, Andrea Wulzer, Andrea De Simone

We provide a systematic effective lagrangian description of the phenomenology of the lightest top-partners in composite Higgs models. Our construction is based on symmetry, on selection rules and on plausible dynamical assumptions. The structure of the res ...

Effects of sharing text selections on gaze recurrence and interaction quality in a pair programming task

Patrick Jermann, Marc-Antoine Nüssli

We present experimental findings from a dual eye-tracking study that illustrate the effect of different ways of sharing se- lection in remote pair-programming scenario. Forty pairs of engineering students had to complete several program under- standing tas ...

The Connectome Mapper: an open-source processing pipeline to map connectomes with MRI

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandra Griffa, Reto Meuli, Patric Hagmann, Alessandro Daducci, Leila Cammoun, Xavier Gigandet, Alia Lemkaddem

Researchers working in the field of global connectivity analysis using diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can count on a wide selection of software packages for processing their data, with methods ranging from the reconstruction of the local intra- ...

Large MEMS-based programmable reflective slit mask for multi-object spectroscopy fabricated using multiple wafer-level bonding

Nico de Rooij, Michael David Canonica, Wilfried Noell

Multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) allows measuring infrared spectra of faint astronomical objects that provides information on the evolution of the Universe. MOS requires a slit mask for object selection at the focal plane of the telescope. We are developing ...
