Hydrogenated amorphous silicon high flux x-ray detectors for synchrotron microbeam radiation therapy

Sylvain Dunand, Nicolas Würsch, Matthew James Large, Giulia Rossi

Objective. Microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) is an alternative emerging radiotherapy treatment modality which has demonstrated effective radioresistant tumour control while sparing surrounding healthy tissue in preclinical trials. This apparent selectivity ...

Development and applications of hyperpolarized 13C and 1H MR spectroscopy of cerebral metabolism at ultra-high field

Emmanuelle Ines Flatt

This thesis is composed of four studies centered on investigating cerebral metabolism using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of hyperpolarized and non-hyperpolarized compounds at ultra-high field. In the first two chapters, we studied longitudinally t ...

Satellite-Based Personal UV Dose Estimation

Athanasios Nenes, David Vernez

Epidemiology and public health research relating to solar ultraviolet (UV) exposure usually relies on dosimetry to measure UV doses received by individuals. However, measurement errors affect each dosimetry measurement by unknown amounts, complicating the ...

Impact of the skull contour definition on Leksell Gamma Knife(R)Icon (TM) radiosurgery treatment planning

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction The Gamma Knife(R)planning software (TMR 10, Elekta Instruments, AB, Sweden) affords two ways of defining the skull volume, the "historical" one using manual measurements (still perform in some centers) and the new one using image-based skull ...

Volatile organic compounds in 169 energy-efficient dwellings in Switzerland

Dusan Licina, Shen Yang

Exposure to elevated levels of certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in households has been linked to deleterious health effects. This study presents the first large-scale investigation of VOC levels in 169 energy-efficient dwellings in Switzerland. Th ...

A fish intestinal barrier model to assess the interaction with chemicals in vitro

Hannah Inka Schug

The intestinal epithelium acts as vital gate keeper between the fish and its surrounding environment. A single layer of connected epithelial cells forms a selective barrier, which, among other essential functions, is important for nutrient uptake and defen ...

The mitophagy activator urolithin A is safe and induces a molecular signature of improved mitochondrial and cellular health in humans

Johan Auwerx, Patrick Aebischer, Pénélope Andreux, Dongryeol Ryu, Frederic Burdet, Anurag Singh

Urolithin A (UA) is a natural dietary, microflora-derived metabolite shown to stimulate mitophagy and improve muscle health in old animals and in preclinical models of aging(1). Here, we report the results of a first-in-human clinical trial in which we adm ...

TransFEr: a new device to measure the transfer of volatile and hydrophobic organic chemicals across an in vitro intestinal fish cell barrier

Kristin Schirmer, Hannah Inka Schug

Transfer of compounds across cellular barriers is a critical step of compound uptake into organisms. Using in vitro barrier systems to evaluate such transfer is attractive because of the higher throughput and reduced resource needs compared to animal studi ...

On the origin of primary 1/2 a(0) and a(0) loops in irradiated Fe(Cr) alloys

Robin Schäublin, Anna Prokhodtseva

The radiation-induced primary dislocation loops in thin foils of ultra-high purity Fe and Fe(Cr) model alloys were investigated using ion irradiation in situ in a TEM. In the '111 mechanism' the induced nanometric loops of type a(0) stem from mutual ...

Antitubercular drugs for an old target: GSK693 as a promising InhA direct inhibitor

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, François Signorino-Gelo

Despite being one of the first antitubercular agents identified, isoniazid (INH) is still the most prescribed drug for prophylaxis and tuberculosis (TB) treatment and, together with rifampicin, the pillars of current chemotherapy. A high percentage of ison ...
