Essays in Empirical Asset Pricing

This thesis consists of three applications of machine learning techniques to empirical asset pricing.In the first part, which is co-authored work with Oksana Bashchenko, we develop a new method that detects jumps nonparametrically in financial time series ...

Methods for functional connectivity and morphometry in neonatal neuroimaging to study neurodevelopment.

Serafeim Loukas

Preterm birth is a major pediatric health problem that perturbs the genetically determined program of corticogenesis of the developing brain. As a consequence, prematurity has been strongly associated with adverse long-term neurodevelopmental outcome that ...

Broccoli: Sprinkling Lightweight Vocabulary Learning into Everyday Information Diets

Robert West

The learning of a new language remains to this date a cognitive task that requires considerable diligence and willpower, recent advances and tools notwithstanding. In this paper, we propose Broccoli, a new paradigm aimed at reducing the required effort by ...

Engram Excitement

Johannes Gräff, Zimbul Albo

Engram cells can encode and switch between multiple mnemonic functions, but how they intrinsically do so is unknown. Pignatelli, Ryan, and colleagues show that upon memory recall, the engram's excitability is transiently elevated, allowing its bearer to ad ...

Neurofeedback training with a low-priced EEG device leads to faster alpha enhancement but shows no effect on cognitive performance: A single-blind, sham-feedback study

Andreas Sonderegger, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues

Introduction Findings of recent studies indicate that it is possible to enhance cognitive capacities of healthy individuals by means of individual upper alpha neurofeedback training (NFT). Although these results are promising, most of this research was con ...

Urban Scars: From invisible to visible – In Beijing and Mexico City

Yves Pedrazzini, Florence Graezer Bideau, Lesslie Astrid Herrera Quiroz

Memory is a process that works through the identification of social references within a spatial framework, without physical marks necessarily found in the tangible present. Nonetheless, these references subsist in representations from the past and continue ...

Memory performance-related dynamic brain connectivity indicates pathological burden and genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

Background: The incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) strongly relates to advanced age and progressive deposition of cerebral amyloid-beta (A beta), hyperphosphorylated tau, and iron. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between ce ...

The antidepressant agomelatine blocks the adverse effects of stress on memory and enables spatial learning to rapidly increase neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) expression in the hippocampus of rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Lisa Conboy

Agomelatine, a novel antidepressant with established clinical efficacy, acts as a melatonin receptor agonist and 5-HT(2C) receptor antagonist. As stress is a significant risk factor in the development of depression, we sought to determine if chronic agomel ...

Acute stress-induced impairment of spatial memory is associated with decreased expression of neural cell adhesion molecule in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

BACKGROUND: There is an extensive literature describing how stress disturbs cognitive processing and can exacerbate psychiatric disorders. There is, however, an insufficient understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in stress effects on brain and ...

Metabolic activation pattern of distinct hippocampal subregions during spatial learning and memory retrieval

Pierre Magistretti, Luc Pellerin

Activation dynamics of hippocampal subregions during spatial learning and their interplay with neocortical regions is an important dimension in the understanding of hippocampal function. Using the (14C)-2-deoxyglucose autoradiographic method, we have chara ...
