Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records
Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2020Cognitive epigenetic priming: leveraging histone acetylation for memory amelioration
Multiple studies have found that increasing histone acetylation by means of histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) treatment can ameliorate memory and rescue cognitive impairments, but their mode of action is not fully understood. In particular, it is uncle ...
2020Exploring Energy Transfer in a Metal/Perovskite Nanocrystal Antenna to Drive Photocatalysis
Raffaella Buonsanti, Mounir Driss Mensi, Anna Loiudice, Seryio Saris
The use of all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) in photocatalytic systems has been limited because of their instability in polar solvents. Encapsulation of PeNCs in inorganic or polymeric matrices has been shown to be effective in overcoming such ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2019Multilevel regulation of the glass locus during Drosophila eye development
Bart Deplancke, Michael Vincent Frochaux, Abhishek Kumar Mishra
Development of eye tissue is initiated by a conserved set of transcription factors termed retinal determination network (RDN). In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the zinc-finger transcription factor Glass acts directly downstream of the RDN to contr ...
